Overview

Applied Falcor: Designing High-Performance Data Access Layers with Netflix's Falcor is a practical, example-driven guide to building efficient, resilient data delivery layers. It begins with Falcor's core concepts-the JSON Graph model, virtualized data paths, and the benefits of a single, discoverable graph over conventional REST and GraphQL approaches-and places them in the context of real-world enterprise use cases and the evolving Falcor ecosystem. The book then moves into hands-on techniques for modeling maintainable JSON Graph schemas, managing relationships and version-safe evolution, and implementing both client- and server-side components. Readers learn how to instantiate and optimize Falcor clients, design scalable routers, integrate heterogeneous data sources, and apply production-grade patterns such as batching, caching, security hardening, and performance tuning to build high-throughput, low-latency data access layers. Rounding out the coverage are pragmatic strategies for testing, quality assurance, compliance, monitoring, and cost management, plus guidance for deploying Falcor within microservices, serverless, and edge computing environments. With coverage of operational concerns and community-driven extensions, this book is an essential reference for developers, architects, and engineering leaders who need to design, deliver, and operate high-performance data access in modern applications.
