## Federation

GraphQL Java is the foundation for building GraphQL services on the JVM. For
teams adopting GraphQL Federation, [feddi](https://feddi.dev) is the first
JVM-native GraphQL federation gateway and platform built on GraphQL Java,
implementing the [GraphQL Composite Schemas Specification](https://graphql.github.io/composite-schemas-spec/draft/).

The open-source gateway — [feddi-gateway](https://github.com/feddi-dev/feddi-gateway)
— runs as a standalone federation gateway inside existing Java and Spring GraphQL
environments.

feddi is developed independently from GraphQL Java.
