How does 8base work?

Your teams only need to focus on core business logic and on the front-end.

8base's platform has pre-wired all the AWS services, and 3rd party integrations, that are required by all software – yet unique to none! Authentication, Roles and Permissions, File and Image storage, Relational Database, a GraphQL API Endpoint, and others are all production-ready.

Leverage our powerful GraphQL Engine

GraphQL enables front-end developers to move faster by freeing them up from dependencies on back-end teams.

A robust query language designed for front-end developers

Auto-generated CRUD operations for all objects.

Advanced query syntax for filtering, full text search, sorting, pagination, grouping and aggregations.

Use our API Explorer to rapidly iterate and test queries.
