Uma Análise comparativa de performance entre requisições em apis rest e apis graphql utilizando javascript

Abstract

With the rise of technology in recent years it was possible to develop several systems and software products aiming to take advantage of business opportunities, connect and facilitate the communication of various users in a software application, as well as automate processes, software engineering brings resources, tools and processes seeking to speed up the development time and also aiming to assist in the quality and performance that any software must present when it is available for use. Therefore, the objective of this work is to perform a comparative analysis of the performance of software development technologies. To do this, first, we searched for technologies available in the market to be compared that met the criteria of popularity, active community, and number of appearances in articles and research topics. Three technologies were identified and given the results of the research, it was defined the use of two technologies from a specific area of software development, one of them used in this work are the frameworks that appeared with the intention of facilitating the development of web applications, this way a framework was selected for back-end development, to be implemented server applications for the performance tests. The analyses were performed based on performance metrics selected in the literature and also available in the benchmarking tool used. The load tests were planned based on the simulation of real scenarios in which a large number of accesses are made by users performing several actions on a software system given a certain context.
