Introduction to Hive

Hive is a GraphQL schema registry for managing and collaborating on all your Apollo Federation, Monolithic or Schema Stitching GraphQL workflows.

The Hive platform gives the tools you need to gain insights, make decissions, and evolve your GraphQL API with confidence.

  • Track the evolution of your GraphQL schema
  • Analytics and Observability on how your GraphQL API is being used
  • Prevent schema changes that break clients based on real-world traffic
  • Notify teams with alerts and notifications
  • Enforce schema design best practices
  • Secure your GraphQL API with the Hive Gateway

Hive and all of its components are developed and managed as an MIT open-source project.

To get started, you can choose between our Hive Cloud service or run it as a self-hosted solution.
