Hasura

Hasura introspects your database schema and instantly exposes a production-ready GraphQL API with built-in permissions, subscriptions, and caching. You don't write resolvers; Hasura translates GraphQL queries directly to optimized SQL, letting you add custom logic through webhooks or remote schemas when needed. Row-level security rules attach to user roles, so your admin app inherits access control from day one.

Ideal for teams that want a modern API layer without building it from scratch, especially those already using GraphQL on the front-end. Works with PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, and other databases. Hasura fits well when your admin interface is a front-end application that talks to multiple services; the GraphQL layer becomes your single gateway, enforcing permissions consistently across your entire admin surface.
