Learn how to identify & resolve edge cases when testing complex systems and the best ways to prepare a test suite to validate performance.

The ability to process and analyze information in real-time is more than just an advantage—it’s a necessity. SAP HANA, with its in-memory technology, has emerged as a leader in this domain, offering businesses unparalleled speed and agility in data analytics. However, as powerful as SAP HANA is, maximizing its potential often requires seamless integration with other platforms and applications. Enter DreamFactory: an open-source API generation platform designed to connect the dots.

With demands on software development teams to work faster than ever before, efficiency is King. Many teams are implementing test automation to boost productivity, as manual testing can be time-consuming and error prone. Test automation revolutionizes the testing process. It enables you to automatically publish test results from various automation frameworks directly into your test management environment.

API gateway authentication is one of the key functions of an API gateway. In carrying out this function, the API gateway manages authentication and authorization for the entire group of APIs that sit behind it. In this way, API gateway authentication safeguards your systems and information against unwanted access, data breaches, hacks, and mistakes. While the basic premise of API gateway authentication is easy enough to grasp, this guide offers a more nuanced understanding of the concept.

Classical request/response architecture is driven by procedure calls, where a caller waits for the call to finish, and the call continues until the work is done. Each incoming call is broken into smaller procedure calls, which may in turn call other procedures. In contrast, event-driven architecture (EDA) is driven by events such as user actions, sensor outputs, or messages from other programs/threads, which determines the execution flow.

API documentation is the cornerstone of any successful API-driven project. It serves as a critical reference point for developers and consumers to understand how an API works, its endpoints, request/response formats, and more. While having comprehensive documentation is essential, what truly sets developers apart is the ability to seamlessly explore and test these APIs within the context of their documentation.
