Solo.io recently released QLoo , an API translation layer to provide GraphQL endpoints for existing services and serverless functions. As described byIdit Levine, founder and CEO of solo, "Working with GraphQL for greenfield development is a wonderful experience…. Adding GraphQL on top of existing software comes at a cost of added complexity, logic, and development time."

QLoo is based on solo's existing function gateway, Gloo , and both are designed to "glue" together all the components of a system. QLoo provides a configuration-driven, zero code implementation of a single GraphQL API service to unify REST APIs, gRPC services, and serverless functions.

The underlying HTTP routing for QLoo is handled using Envoy , the open source service proxy developed at Lyft . Envoy provides a low footprint and high network performance for calls to external services. Levine also claims, "Envoy adds features such as encryption, authentication, monitoring and metrics with no effort by the user."
