<!here> Today on office hours we'll have Stategraph founders on the call giving a demo. It's a great opportunity to ask questions from <@U04QWK6JEDP> and <@U04R7KQKTLY> who have arguably spent more time looking at Terraform state than any one.

I know I have lot of questions!  Watch the video below of their demo last week, for a preview.

If you've never heard of StateGraph, it's a new way to manage your Terraform state backend using a ~graph~  postgres database.

By moving the backend into a graph database, performance dramatically improves versus serializing and deserializing a JSON state file.

They're going to show how this is possible in Terraform and the kind of performance improvements you can expect.

Thanks Eric! Looking forward to it.

Here's the website if anyone wants to check it out before the call: <https://stategraph.com/>

Slight correction -- we're actually using postgres on the backend not a graph database. But, the part about performance dramatically improving around plan/apply is correct :)
