Background

In the project of my full-time job, there is an existing GraphQL server implemented using Elide. I want to replace it with the following reasons:

• There are several limitations with this library, and there is not much room for customization.
• We also want to replace Spring-Data-JPA by Spring-Data-JDBC, for the simplicity of the later one. However, it does not supported by Elide.

In this repo, I try to do a POC with existing ways to implement GraphQL server in Java to see if it is worthy to replace Elide.
