| Abstract : |
In recent years, cloud-native architectures have transformed how web applications are designed, deployed, and scaled. This paper presents a systematic review of the role of GraphQL, Docker, and microservices in enabling modern web applications. The survey explores the evolution from monolithic to microservices-based systems, the adoption of Docker containerization for deployment consistency, and the use of GraphQL as an API gateway for efficient data retrieval. Key performance metrics such as response time, throughput, scalability, and error rates are analyzed across multiple studies. The review highlights the advantages of microservices architectures over monoliths, identifies challenges in orchestration, security, and resource utilization, and provides directions for future research in cloud-native development. |
