GraphOS Enterprise features

With an Apollo GraphOS Enterprise plan, you gain access to powerful routing, delivery, governance, and reporting features for your supergraph. This article summarizes the most notable of these features and provides links to the full documentation for each.

See the left navigation for a list of all Enterprise-specific articles from across the GraphOS documentation.

To compare GraphOS feature support across all plan types, see the

Enterprise trial

You can sign up for a GraphOS Enterprise trial to test out most Enterprise features for the duration of the trial period.

Self-hosted routing

With GraphOS Enterprise, you can deploy your supergraph's

These router instances connect to GraphOS to fetch their managed configuration and report fine-grained operation metrics.

This architecture helps you satisfy sophisticated requirements around data compliance and performance, and it also enables you to further customize your router's behavior with Enterprise-specific functionality described below.

Schema pipeline

GraphOS provides schema

Schema change management with proposals

• Subgraph developers can propose changes in the context of the supergraph using automated checks and reviewer feedback for validation.
• Graph consumers can actively participate by commenting on, reviewing, and approving proposals.
• Graph owners and governance teams can use proposals to set standards and ensure only approved changes are published.

This increased coordination improves design decisions and accountability, streamlining development cycles.

Schema filtering with contracts

You can then deploy a

Contracts are especially useful if you want to expose a subset of your supergraph as a public API.

Organization management

You can integrate GraphOS with your organization's identity provider (IdP) to enable single sign-on (SSO) for

SSO configuration is available for the following:

• Okta
• Azure AD
• Generic SAML

Metrics and reporting

GraphOS Studio offers a performant and intuitive UI to help all GraphOS users monitor and understand their supergraph's usage and performance. The following features are only available to GraphOS Enterprise organizations:

• The

  Apollo Datadog integration
  lets you forward performance metrics to your Datadog account. Datadog supports an advanced function API, which enables you to create sophisticated visualizations and alerts for GraphQL metrics.

• Build status notifications
  let you notify your team via webhook whenever GraphOS attempts to build a new supergraph schema for your federated graph.
