Company mission

To unlock the world's data by creating the global data graph.

Our take

With the never-ending growth of smart devices and mobile apps, demand on mobile computing networks is getting higher and higher. Edge caching is a popular solution to this demand, placing popular content at the network’s edge to reduce wait times. Stellate, formerly known as GraphCDN, offers edge caching services and metrics for applications in GraphQL – a fast and accurate query language that the company aims to bring to the forefront of the industry.

GraphQL was created by Facebook in 2012, but has not seen much use outside the largest hyperscale firms – although the adoption by top businesses shows the value of the language. With the launch of their products, Stellate makes GraphQL more attractive to more businesses. Its technology caches and tags data to customer specifications, and it can update the cached information when a change is detected. Instant, global changes like this are particularly attractive to businesses that deal with constantly changing information, such as financial firms.

Stellate has raised substantial funds which which it will use to build out a global data graph. By uniting existing GraphQL projects, the company hopes to make its chosen query language ubiquitous.
