Did you actually read the article? I explicitly mention that Apollo uses Redux as a cache under the hood (although that's not required).

I reread it several times trying to understand how simply using GraphQL allowed you to eliminate the need for all actions / stores for your entire client side stack. It wasn't until I looked into Apollo that I understood what you had actually implemented.
Apollo is mentioned 4 times in the article. That's beside the point though, even using GraphQL with plain old HTTP requests would have removed a lot of the need for Redux in our case.
Just an fyi, Apollo no longer uses Redux under the hood.
