Hey, Nikolas from Prisma here!

Can you elaborate what exactly you mean with "GraphQL integration"? You might be referring to Prisma 1 which was a "GraphQL layer for your database". Prisma 2 (which we are referring to with this article) doesn't have a native GraphQL integration any more :)

Prisma is very different from Sequelize in various ways (see our docs [1]):

- Your data model lives in the Prisma schema

- Database access doesn't happen via model instances but via the Prisma Client API [2] which always returns plain JS objects making your queries much easier to reason about - Prisma Migrate auto-generates migrations based on your data model (and lets you customize these migrations when needed)

- Prisma comes with Prisma Studio out of the box – a modern database GUI

- Prisma is not a community-project but built by a VC-funded company

– We care a lot about our community, documentation, and providing support (something we've seen lots of developers complain about with other ORMs)
