Navigating API development is essential for creating seamless software interactions. This guide strips back the complexity, offering a clear pathway through the intricacies of API creation, from brass-tacks design principles to advanced security and documentation. Among the APIs we’ll explore for their role in simplifying software interactions is the REST API. This model emphasizes functions like GET, PUT, and DELETE to interact with server data efficiently and statelessly.

In many industries (finance and healthcare, to name a couple), regulations require the use of multi-factor authentication (MFA) to protect access to sensitive data and transactions. Also, an important executive order was issued, aimed at improving the cybersecurity posture within the US government by requiring all federal agencies to adopt MFA systems. Regulations and standards like these will continue to spread over more industries and transaction types.

We all know what a "software" is, but then what is software testing or why is it even important? Let me answer your doubts- Software Testing is a process that involves evaluating software components to ensure they meet specified requirements and are defect-free. The main goal of software testing is to verify that the actual software matches the expected requirements, enhancing the product quality and customer satisfaction.

With the Silver and Bronze Stevie Awards, Xray reaffirms its commitment to outstanding customer support and service excellence. Xray, a leader in software testing solutions, is proud to announce its recent awards in the 2024 Stevie Awards. It secured a Silver Stevie for Front-Line Customer Service Team of the Year and a Bronze Stevie in the Customer Service Department of the Year category for Computer Software companies with up to 100 employees.

In today's data-driven world, the ability to seamlessly connect, manage, and manipulate vast amounts of data is paramount for businesses and developers alike. Graph API stands at the forefront of this technological frontier, offering robust tools that facilitate complex data interactions within applications. This powerful API provides a framework for accessing and integrating data points in an intuitive and effective manner, supporting dynamic data structures across various platforms.

It’s hard to know who to trust for automated testing tools. With so many options, deciding which one will fit your specific needs can be tough. That’s why we’re breaking down the top tools in the industry, their advantages and disadvantages, the tests they’re used for, their price points, and more. We’ll also share user reviews and give you our recommendations to help you find the perfect fit for your business needs.

The pharmaceutical industry generates a great deal of identifiable data (such as clinical trial data, patient engagement data) that has guardrails around “use and access.” Data captured for the intended purpose of use described in a protocol is called “primary use.” However, once anonymized, this data can be used for other inferences in what we can collectively define as secondary analyses.

Hybrid cloud plays a central role in many of today’s emerging innovations—most notably artificial intelligence (AI) and other emerging technologies that create new business value and improve operational efficiencies. But getting there requires data, and a lot of it. More than that, though, harnessing the potential of these technologies requires quality data—without it, the output from an AI implementation can end up inefficient or wholly inaccurate.

In today’s digital landscape, ensuring the optimal performance of your applications is paramount for delivering seamless user experiences. However, identifying potential bottlenecks is not easy. This analysis is one of the single most important activities in performance testing, but it’s often the most difficult one, and a misstep can cause significant setbacks.

Last year, we introduced the Connect with Confluent partner program, enabling our technology partners to develop native integrations with Confluent Cloud. This gives our customers access to Confluent data streams from within their favorite applications and allows them to extract maximum value from their data.
