on Feb 23, 2022Berlin | Münster February 2022 – Hygraph and Frontastic announce a strategic partnership to help companies build better digital experiences.
Today, we’re happy to announce our strategic partnership with Frontastic, one of the most innovative frontend management platforms for headless and API-first systems. As companies looking to rapidly digitize are moving to an “API-first” approach by embracing modular SaaS solutions, the need to unify these APIs into a flexible and highly-performant frontend is critical. Frontastic has had proven experience in this field with customers like Apollo, Flaconi, and Universal, and has been raising the bar for frontend experiences on joint projects together with us at Hygraph.
“Hygraph and Frontastic are both driven by the ethos of MACH architectures – giving companies the best possible APIs to work with, in a composable manner – as is prevalent with our work with Frontastic on previous projects together”, says John Henn, Head of Global Partnerships at Hygraph. “We’re excited to be formalizing our relationship, and look forward to working on many more projects together”.
Hygraph and Frontastic have partnered together before on highly demanding projects – first, with Prym, Germany's oldest family-run eCommerce company, and more recently with gamescom, the largest online gaming convention. Both projects have been case studies in re-platforming from monoliths to composable architectures with a MACH-first approach focusing on flexibility and performance.
“With 6000 requests per second and 1.5 million visitors per day, the joint solution of Hygraph and Frontastic has to be robust and always up and running!”, adds Kelly Pauw, Technology Partner Manager at Frontastic.
To learn more about working with Hygraph and Frontastic on your next ambitious project, get in touch with us.
With its Frontend-as-a-Service, Frontastic is rethinking the digital customer experience. Truly based on mobile-first, the solution enables ambitious online retailers, brands, marketplaces, or even agile start-ups to easily implement a customer-centric digital experience with minimal IT effort.
