Cloudflare TV - Building serverless APIs: How Fauna and Workers make it easy

Building APIs has always been tricky when it comes to setting up architecture. Fauna and Workers remove that burden by letting you write code and watch it run everywhere.

Gave a talk "Building data-driven APIs at the edge" at Serverless in the Park.

Moderated the panel discussion "The Future of Jamstack and Serverless" with Matt Biilmann, Jeremy Daly, and Brian LeRoux at Serverless in the Park.

Accelerating delivery with GraphQL and Fauna

Fauna instantly generates basic queries, mutations, and collections when you upload your GraphQL schema. This lets you start building your application immediately, without worrying about database setup and configuration. However, Fauna offers a lot more flexibility and power to GraphQL developers than simple create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) queries and mutations.
Today we’re announcing two new ways to simplify harnessing that power to deliver complete production applications to your users more quickly, auto-generated resolvers for user-defined functions (UDFs) and the Fauna workshop for GraphQL developers.

Applying test-driven development to your database

Test-driven development (TDD) is a popular software development methodology that aims to reduce defects and improve the ease of maintaining code. In this post, you learn how to apply TDD to write queries and expressions with the Fauna Query Language (FQL). You learn a general pattern for TDD with FQL, then apply that pattern to implement a `Split()` function that accepts string and delimiter parameters and returns an array of substrings “split” at each occurrence of the delimiter.

Scaling Transactional Data Globally with Fauna

Joined Alex and Brittney on CodingCat.dev episode 2.5 to talk about my history as a developer advocate and Fauna, a flexible, developer-friendly, transactional database delivered as a secure and scalable cloud API with native GraphQL.
