Session

The Right Kind of API – How To Choose Appropriate API Protocols and Data Formats

In this session we will evaluate various data formats (JSON, XML, Protocol Buffers, and YAML), and discuss their pros and cons in varying scenarios. We will also evaluate how they pair with adequate data channels (HTTP/S, Binary over gRPC, gRPCweb in browsers, or Web Sockets). We will review various API use cases and map them with the right combination of data formats and channels for best performance, scalability, and maintainability.
