Hi ryanschneider This is a very interesting model we are actively exploring. The primary issue is that the cost of the minimum infrastructure required to run Graphcool in the scalable and fault-tolerant way we have designed our architecture is too high to make it feasible for most projects. We are offering this option on the enterprise plan, but that's a very different price point than our publicly listed plans.

Maybe it's a hybrid approach where most of the load is handled by the SaaS "mothership" but users could opt-in to running additional AWS Marketplace nodes in their own infrastructure to have more direct access to their data? This could also answer hobofan's request for a solution to BI integration.

  I think that is a very valid approach. We use https://buildkite.com/ https://buildkite.com/ for ci and they have exactly that model, where they manage the admin panel and meta data db, but worker nodes can be deployed elsewhere
