Graph-Driven API Design: Connected Data Systems
Stop Building Systems That Miss the Bigger Picture
Your APIs work. Your databases store data. But are you missing the goldmine hiding in plain sight—the connections between your data?
Most systems today are built like isolated islands. Customer records here, transaction data there, product catalogs somewhere else. But the real intelligence isn't in the data itself—it's in how everything connects.
What if your systems could think in relationships instead of just storing facts?
Written by Sumit Agaria, Principal Services Architect with years of enterprise graph implementation experience, this book reveals how to build APIs that don't just manage data—they understand it.
You'll
Graph thinking fundamentals – See your domain through the lens of connections, not just entitiesProperty graph modeling – Transform messy real-world problems into elegant, queryable structuresCypher mastery – Write queries that traverse relationships like a detective following leadsNext-gen API patterns – Move beyond basic CRUD to CONNECT, TRAVERSE, and DISCOVER operationsProduction-ready architecture – Security, scaling, and microservices strategies that actually work with graph dataReal-world applications – From fraud detection to recommendation engines, see graphs in actionStop building systems that only see half the story. Whether you're architecting the next breakthrough in e-commerce personalization, designing fraud detection that catches what others miss, or building knowledge systems that actually connect the dots—this book gives you the blueprint.
Perfect Senior developers, solution architects, and technical leaders ready to unlock the hidden intelligence in their connected data.
The data revolution isn't about bigger databases. It's about smarter connections.
Start thinking in graphs. Start building systems that truly understand.
