Requirements: .ePUB, .PDF reader, 13.4 MB | True PDF, True EPUB
Overview: Learn how to build robust, future-proof APIs by applying the latest industry best practices, avoiding common pitfalls, and understanding anti-patterns. Designing APIs that are built to last—scalable, user-focused, and robust—isn’t just a technical challenge but a design imperative. This book is your comprehensive guide to API design, focusing on domain-driven, consumer-centric APIs that meet real user needs while remaining flexible and maintainable over time. It covers modern REST API design, the use of tools like OpenAPI and JSON Schema, and the importance of a product-based approach. The chapters help you explore best practices, potential pitfalls, and anti-patterns, extending beyond the design phase. Starting with the “why” behind building an API, its intended users, and value, this book walks you through the API lifecycle, the role of contracts, and the application of domain-driven design. You’ll develop a solid foundation in REST API design as you discover different styles, design constraints, and more. Beyond design, the book covers testing techniques, API evolution, maintenance, and deprecation. By the end of the book, you’ll not only know how to design great APIs—you’ll understand how to treat them as products, manage their full lifecycle, and deliver real value by ensuring your APIs stay relevant and reliable long after their initial release. This book is for professionals involved in the digital product lifecycle who want to deepen their understanding of API design and build future-proof APIs with a product-centric approach. API developers, solution architects and engineers, technical product owners, and software architects looking to extend their skills in creating efficient, scalable, and maintainable APIs will find this book particularly useful. Basic knowledge of APIs and the HTTP protocol is recommended to fully benefit from the design principles and practices covered.
