Download as PPTX, PDF0 likes758 views
ql.io is an open-source querying tool aimed at reducing API overload by providing easier access to data from various sources. It allows users to create and manage tables, query data using simple commands, and integrate with standalone servers. Jonathan LeBlanc, a developer evangelist at x.commerce (eBay Inc.), highlights its capabilities and shares resources for further exploration.

Editor's Notes
- #3: Mashing up multiple data sourcesPerformance issuesAdd slides showing performance hits
- #4: Language based on a SQL-like syntax which exports all data to JSON
- #6: If you’re using the web endpoint you would make HTTP GET requests to the API endpoint, inserting your query in the request. A JSON response will be returned to you.
- #7: If you download the standalone server version of ql.io, it will sit on top of your existing node server (or within your node applications) and be able to query your internal data and/or external data sources
