- The Anatomy of an API

While the report contains a lot of advertisement on the company’s product, it still contains interesting insight:
HTTP methods are underutilized, and engineers generally use the POST method to do the work of PUT, PATCH, and DELETE operations.
74% of all requests were made over HTTPS, while 26% used the HTTP protocol.
Most API requests are not made directly through end clients but from various server-side back-ends.

A strong opinion, with some interesting points:
It’s time for the open source Rambos to stop fighting and agree that developers care more about software’s access and ease of use than the purity of its license.
- Per Resource Events
-
Per Resource Events is a minimal protocol built on top of HTTP that allows clients to receive notifications directly from any resource of interest. The Per Resource Events Protocol (PREP) is predicated on the idea that the most intuitive source for notifications about changes made to a resource is the resource itself.

When I started working on this post, I had another idea in mind: I wanted to compare the developer experience and performance of Spring Boot and GraalVM with Rust on a demo HTTP API application. Unfortunately, the M1 processor of my MacBook Pro had other ideas.
Hence, I change my initial plan. I’ll write about the developer experience of developing the above application in Rust, compared to what I’m used to with Spring Boot.
