Approach
- Begin with clear use cases before designing schema
- Identify root types and connections for efficient queries
- Utilize fragments to reduce query size and improve performance
- Implement pagination with cursor-based approaches
- Apply batching and caching to minimize database load
- Use only necessary fields in the schema to avoid over-fetching
- Regularly review and refine the schema with evolving needs
- Ensure backward compatibility when updating the schema
- Integrate linting tools to catch schema issues early
- Monitor query performance and optimize as needed
