Apollo vs Clever Cloud: What are the differences?
Apollo: GraphQL server for Express, Connect, Hapi, Koa and more. Build a universal GraphQL API on top of your existing REST APIs, so you can ship new application features fast without waiting on backend changes; Clever Cloud: Deploy and run apps with bulletproof infrastructure, automatic scaling, and fair pricing. Clever Cloud is a polyglot cloud application platform. The service helps developers to build applications with many languages and services, with auto-scaling features and a true pay-as-you-go pricing model.
Apollo and Clever Cloud can be categorized as "Platform as a Service" tools.
"From the creators of Meteor" is the top reason why over 8 developers like Apollo, while over 146 developers mention "Quick & easy setup" as the leading cause for choosing Clever Cloud.
Apollo is an open source tool with 7.53K GitHub stars and 935 GitHub forks. Here's a link to Apollo's open source repository on GitHub.
CircleCI, Impraise, and Swat.io are some of the popular companies that use Apollo, whereas Clever Cloud is used by Scala.IO, Spendabit, and Rude Baguette. Apollo has a broader approval, being mentioned in 131 company stacks & 127 developers stacks; compared to Clever Cloud, which is listed in 21 company stacks and 3 developer stacks.
We wanted to save as much time as possible when writing our back-end, therefore Apollo was out of the question, we went for an auto-generated API instead. Hasura looked good in the beginning, but we wanted to retain the ability to add a few manual resolvers and modifications to auto-generated ones, which ruled out Hasura. Postgraphile with its Plug-In architecture was the right choice for us, we never regretted it!
