How do you ship major enterprise features at scale with confidence?

In case you missed it: we just released Cosmo Connect, which we believe is the next generation of GraphQL federation. Cosmo Connect allows you to bring all your datasources onto the graph (REST, SOAP, gRPC, legacy services, etc.) without rewriting a single line of code.

We also hosted our first webinar in a year. Watch the replay here (passcode 43eXjeR+): https://zoom.us/clips/share/mLepIFIaSfifvzkFle7zcg

Today, Dustin Deus (CTO @ WunderGraph), Ludwig Bedacht (Senior Software Engineer @ WunderGraph), and Jesse Thompson (Software Engineer @ WunderGraph) joins Jens to dive deep on how Connect came to life, the tradeoffs involved in shipping major features to your flagship product, the reasoning behind Cosmo Connect’s technical architecture, and how AI/LLMs shape today’s roadmaps. We’ll cover how to ship major features without breaking trust, “reading the room” of your competitive landscape, and what this means for enterprises adopting GraphQL at scale.

Here’s what you’ll learn:
- How to ship big features without derailing product stability
- The role of TABs & customer feedback in refining messaging and DX - Competitive landscape: spotting real “hair on fire” problems
- Why plugins & services + gRPC for Connect’s architecture
- How Connect supports LLM/AI workloads in engineering teams
- What’s next for Cosmo & how Connect opens new doors

Who this is for: builders of developer tools, platform & infra leads, and anyone designing distributed systems who wants a pragmatic view of where API infrastructure is heading.

Join the conversation (live chat/comments):
- What’s your toughest Federation or infrastructure pain right now?
- Federation or no federation: where do you land and why?
- How are you (or aren’t you) using LLMs in your API layer?
