Cybersecurity is one of the top concerns for businesses today. Vulnerabilities make the news when they turn into expensive breaches. With the cloud so prevalent in today's digital landscape, much attention has turned to API security. Network attacks aimed at APIs increased by an incredible 681% in 2022. Considering the continued popularity of SOAP (simple object access protocol) APIs, it is now a top priority for global IT leaders to learn SOAP's security best practices.

Imagine a user waiting several seconds for an app to load due to slow API responses. Frustration builds, user retention plummets, and scaling becomes a nightmare. API performance is a critical determinant of user experience and system reliability. Fast APIs ensure seamless interactions and support scalability. Among the strategies to enhance API speed, caching stands out as a powerful, cost-efficient approach.

ERP Integration is the method by which a business connects its ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) software with other applications. The objective is to share data across systems to improve productivity and insights and create a single source of truth. There are several conventional approaches to achieving this, including point-to-point, ESB (Enterprise Service Bus), and iPaaS (Integration Platform as a Service). Here are the key things you need to know about ERP Integration.

In the 21st-century business world, application programming interfaces, or APIs, have become a critical tool for modern organizations. APIs have proven integral when it comes to application development. In addition, APIs help add better functionality and scalability to modern apps. From automating tasks to improving services, APIs provide organizations with various benefits. However, the benefits of API development don't come without some challenges.

In the new age of Industry 4.0 the shopfloor is no longer an isolated environment. It’s the heartbeat of manufacturing operations, responsible for producing, monitoring, and refining goods. But since the lines blur between operational technology (OT) on the shopfloor and information technology (IT) in the enterprise, integrating these systems has become a formidable challenge.

You don't need to constantly create new APIs when you wish to link digital assets to your system. A Reusable API give you the power to integrate multiple applications and platforms with ease. This can help you to save time, optimize performance, and make tracking data a much simpler process.

In the early days of web application development, monolithic frontends and backends were perfectly fine. But the emergence of the cloud has changed expectations. Developers want to build applications that exchange information with APIs (Application Programming Interfaces). Business owners want faster development times. End users expect zero downtime. This new paradigm enabled the rise of service-oriented architecture (SOA) and, along with it, microservices and web services.

With the relative newness of the iPaaS (Integration Platform as a Service) vertical, no single platform has emerged as the de facto choice for enterprises. This can present a challenge if you’re trying to choose among the large pool of solutions available – especially when certain solutions labeled “iPaaS” serve very different use-cases. To help you sort through the rich sea of available products, this guide starts by organizing the market into four categories.

Serverless Computing is considered to be the fourth wave of computing where x86 servers, virtual machines, and containers represented the first three generations. With this new paradigm, developers can squarely focus on the code and without the need to deal with the underlying infrastructure. They never have to plan the number of servers, amount of storage, and the network topology of deployments. Since the platform deals with one function at a time, and functions are the fundamental deployment units, this model is often called Functions as a Service (FaaS).
