As companies look to build scalable, flexible software, they are increasingly turning to API-driven development. A well-built API allows you to provide core services to internal stakeholders or customers without locking them into a specific user interface. In 2021, APIs need to be optimized for performance, providing secure and reliable real-time data access.

Once performance metrics are in place, you can employ techniques such as caching, payload limits, rate limiting, and others to optimize the API.

In REST API development, you must create endpoints that restrict users to specific data to be included in each call.
