In their own words
Hasura
Hasura is a hybrid API platform that generates data APIs over connected databases, so developers do not need to write handlers, schemas, or resolvers. Hasura Cloud plans provide instant GraphQL APIs, RESTified endpoints, and GraphQL subscriptions. Listed database sources include Postgres-compatible systems, Microsoft SQL Server, BigQuery, Amazon Athena, Snowflake, MySQL, Oracle, MariaDB, MongoDB, and ClickHouse. APIs can be extended with remote schemas, remote joins, Actions, and event or scheduled triggers. Authorization can use an authentication provider of the customer’s choice, with JWT controls through headers, cookies, or webhooks. Cloud hosting is available on AWS, Google Cloud Platform, and Microsoft Azure Cloud. The Community Edition can run from a Docker image, while Enterprise Edition supports on-premises deployment. Hasura Cloud also lists GitHub, observability integrations, query allow lists, access controls, and DDoS monitoring. Plans include a free tier and paid options.
