Demistyfying API Maze for Software Engineers.
Let’s decode the 7 Strategic Commandments that’ll have your APIs doing the heavy lifting with grace and might.
———————————————————————————
1. API Security – Lock it down with AuthN, AuthZ, and get familiar with OAuth and OpenID Connect. Remember, ignoring the OWASP Top 10 is like leaving your digital doors wide open.
2. API Governance – It’s not just oversight; it’s about setting the golden standards for your APIs’ design, deployment, and retirement phases. Governance ensures your API fleet sails smoothly.
3. API Design – Craft it like art but with the precision of engineering. Embrace REST for simplicity, GraphQL for flexibility, and never let API versioning become your Achilles heel.
4. API Initiative – Here’s where strategy meets action. Assign roles, lay out the platform, measure your progress with KPIs, and benchmark your maturity to keep evolving.
5. API Business – It’s the era of the API economy! Think monetization models that make sense, digital value chains that connect, and a supply chain that’s smart and agile.
6. API Product Management – Blend customer-centric design thinking with your API products. Curate an API portfolio that’s as diverse as it is deep.
7. Developer Experience – We’re talking about an API portal that feels like a dev’s second home. Create a marketplace that’s not just functional but a joy to use.
