O'Reilly Report: Mastering API Architecture

Designing and evolving your architecture is a continuous journey. While you cannot predict how technology and business requirements will change, you know APIs are key to your digital strategy as they are the doorways to interaction between your apps, whether you rely on legacy apps, modern ones, or a combination of the two.

In this eBook, you’ll learn:

• API fundamentals—explore standards, schema, and specification of APIs.
• How to build and manage APIs—learn about API gateways, service mesh, and Kubernetes.
• Principles of API security—mitigate OWASP risks with threat modeling and authentication.
