RefCard API Architecture Strategy

 

Description.

As soon as we start working on an API, architecture issues arise. Many mistaken common beliefs turn out to be fiction in this area. A poorly designed API architecture will lead to misuse or – even worse – not be used at all by its intended clients : application developers
