Hasura GraphQL Engine is a blazing-fast GraphQL server that gives you **instant, realtime GraphQL APIs over Postgres**, with [**webhook triggers**](event-triggers.md) on database events, and [**remote schemas**](remote-schemas.md) for business logic.
Hasura helps you build [GraphQL](https://hasura.io/graphql/) apps backed by Postgres or incrementally move to GraphQL for existing applications using Postgres.
Read more at [hasura.io](https://hasura.io) and the [docs](https://hasura.io/docs/).

## Features
* **Make powerful queries**: Built-in filtering, pagination, pattern search, bulk insert, update, delete mutations
* **Realtime**: Convert any GraphQL query to a live query by using subscriptions
* **Merge remote schemas**: Access custom GraphQL schemas for business logic via a single GraphQL Engine endpoint. [**Read more**](remote-schemas.md).
* **Trigger webhooks or serverless functions**: On Postgres insert/update/delete events ([read more](event-triggers.md))
* **Works with existing, live databases**: Point it to an existing Postgres database to instantly get a ready-to-use GraphQL API
* **Fine-grained access control**: Dynamic access control that integrates with your auth system (eg: auth0, firebase-auth)
* **High-performance & low-footprint**: ~15MB docker image; ~50MB RAM @ 1000 req/s; multi-core aware
* **Admin UI & Migrations**: Admin UI & Rails-inspired schema migrations
* **Postgres** ❤️: Supports Postgres types (PostGIS/geo-location, etc.), turns views to *graphs*, trigger stored functions or procedures with mutations

## Quickstart:
### One-click deployment on Hasura Cloud
The fastest and easiest way to try Hasura out is via [Hasura Cloud](https://hasura.io/docs/cloud/1.0/manual/getting-started/index.html).
1. Click on the following button to deploy GraphQL engine on Hasura Cloud including Postgres add-on or using an existing Postgres database:
[![Deploy to Hasura Cloud](https://graphql-engine-cdn.hasura.io/img/deploy_to_hasura.png)](https://cloud.hasura.io/)
2. Open the Hasura console
Click on the button "Launch console" to open the Hasura console.
3. Make your first GraphQL query
Create a table and instantly run your first query. Follow this [simple guide](https://hasura.io/docs/1.0/graphql/manual/getting-started/first-graphql-query.html).

[install manifests](install-manifests).
## Architecture
The Hasura GraphQL Engine fronts a Postgres database instance and can accept GraphQL requests from your client apps. It can be configured to work with your existing auth system and can handle access control using field-level rules with dynamic variables from your auth system.
You can also merge remote GraphQL schemas and provide a unified GraphQL API.
![Hasura GraphQL Engine architecture](assets/hasura-arch.svg)
## Client-side tooling
Hasura works with any GraphQL client. We recommend using [Apollo Client](https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-client). See [awesome-graphql](https://github.com/chentsulin/awesome-graphql) for a list of clients.
## Add business logic
GraphQL Engine provides easy-to-reason, scalable and performant methods for adding custom business logic to your backend:
### Remote schemas
Add custom resolvers in a remote schema in addition to Hasura's Postgres-based GraphQL schema. Ideal for use-cases like implementing a payment API, or querying data that is not in your database - [read more](remote-schemas.md).
### Trigger webhooks on database events
Add asynchronous business logic that is triggered based on database events.
Ideal for notifications, data-pipelines from Postgres or asynchronous
processing - [read more](event-triggers.md).
### Derived data or data transformations
Transform data in Postgres or run business logic on it to derive another dataset that can be queried using GraphQL Engine - [read more](https://hasura.io/docs/1.0/graphql/manual/queries/derived-data.html).
