Description
Building APIs that consumers love requires more than just technical expertise - it demands a solid understanding of API architecture. This comprehensive guide equips you with the foundations and best practices needed to design and develop APIs that meet your business needs. API architecture encompasses the bigger picture of APIs, considering not only the API itself but also its clients, components, and overall solution. By understanding how to build an API platform, you can create a scalable infrastructure for developing, running, and managing multiple APIs. This book is ideal for those looking to establish a platform for APIs or simply want to build APIs that meet their consumers' expectations. While it's not a step-by-step guide for building individual APIs, this book provides the broader context and strategic thinking needed to create a successful API architecture.
