The transition to the new federated architecture meant that many of our backend teams needed to adopt GraphQL in our Java ecosystem.

Over the past few years I have focused much of my learning and work choices around learning about the design of sociotechnical systems?—?how how to design software architectures and organise teams around them. As part of good design, we should consider the effects of changing all of these variables.

The difference in weight between the two architectures is interesting, but what we should focus on is the per interaction loop. The chief effect of the architectural difference is to shift the distribution of latency within the loop.

In addition, even if a job’s memory configuration is initially well tuned, changes such as data size and job definition can cause performance to degrade. One downside of the iterative design of the optimizer is that any bottleneck can block completion and cause a timeout, which we initially observed in a non-trivial number of cases.
