## AI overview

Apollo announces GraphQL-Tools 2.0, its first stable release with schema stitching, which combines multiple underlying GraphQL APIs into a single schema. The article explains how this can help organize growing schemas and integrate GraphQL services, REST APIs, microservices, third-party APIs, and local data. It also notes that Apollo later developed Apollo Federation and recommends migrating to Federation for a more robust and scalable architecture.

## Source excerpt

Note: This post discusses Schema Stitching, an approach we explored that eventually led to the development of Apollo Federation. We recommend migrating to Federation for a more robust and scalable architecture. To get started, follow this migration guide and read this blog post for a real-world example of an organization benefiting from this migration.
