AppSync and MongoDB Atlas help developers create GraphQL APIs by integrating multiple REST APIs and data sources on AWS. Front-end developers use a single GraphQL API data source to drive applications. Compared to REST APIs, developers can flexibly define the structure of the data while reducing payload size by bringing only the required attributes.
Discover how to connect MongoDB and Amazon Web Services (AWS)
AWS Appsync allows you to create APIs that access data from a variety of sources, including databases, serverless functions, and other AWS services. With AWS AppSync, you can build APIs that support real-time data via WebSockets, so that your applications always have the most up-to-date information. AppSync also integrates well with core application features, such as authentication and authorization, so that you can focus on building the core functionality of your application.
In this guide, we’ll discuss how AppSync can integrate with MongoDB to build a function-less API. We’ll also discuss how frontends can leverage the Amplify UI libraries and the new Form Builder ability in Amplify Studio to rapidly connect your frontend with your backend.
