In this lesson, we’ll use the AWS AppSync console to create a new AWS AppSync API. We’ll then implement our first GraphQL Schema & data source in the new API.

We'll see that when using GraphQL with AWS AppSync, many of our Queries, Mutations, and Subscriptions are autogenerated for us.

Can AWS AppSync work with relational databases? I'm not sure if I want to use DynamoDB.

Yep! You can either use Serverless Aurora (as a first class relational data source) or a Lambda function to interact with your own data source.
