How to Catch Multiple Exceptions in Java

Your Java code was humming along smoothly until... BAM! An exception. No problem, you caught it. But wait, there's another. And another. Suddenly, you're juggling exceptions like you’re in the circus. Don't worry, Java's got your back. Java offers three ways to catch multiple exceptions: using multiple catch blocks for different exception types, the multi-catch feature to handle multiple exceptions in a single block, and a catch-all block for general exception handling.

Using GraphQL API in Android

Since it was created by Facebook in 2012 and made publicly available in 2015, GarphQL has changed everything about how we fetch data from servers for our front-end apps. Most front-end clients typically use REST APIs to retrieve data from the server, this includes mobile apps for platforms like Android, iOS, and Flutter, as well as JavaScript frameworks like React, Angular, Vue, and Next. A huge advantage of GraphQL is that it enables front-end clients to request only the API they require.

How to Monetize AI APIs: Choosing The Right Metric

Regarding charging for API usage, we usually gravitate towards charging per API call. While this can work for many use cases, it’s not optimal for everyone. This is where choosing the right metric to bill upon and finding a platform that supports it is crucial. In this blog, we will talk about choosing the right metric to bill upon and how to implement it in Moesif. Let’s begin by digging into what a billing metric is and how to decide which one is best to use with your AI APIs and services.

Dealing with MySQL Lock Timeouts: Bail faster

When using MySQL and InnoDB you will inevitably run into lock timeouts sometime, somewhere. We have recently started seeing this with some of our Shopware 6 customers in their storefronts or worker queues, so I was reminded to go back to 2017 in our codebase when we put a fix in place. In our case, this happened on tables that were constantly written to from many different sources in the code base.

10 Best APIs for Machine Learning

Machine learning APIs provide developers with powerful tools to integrate complex algorithms and models into applications without building them from scratch. These APIs simplify the development process by offering pre-trained models and standardized methods for different tasks. These include image recognition, natural language processing, and predictive analytics. This accessibility democratizes machine learning so that developers of varying expertise can leverage cutting-edge technology efficiently.

The Key to Effective Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Risk Management

In the pharmaceutical industry, an effective supply chain is critical, not only for operations but also for ensuring the safety and quality of products going out to market. The complex nature of pharmaceutical supply chains, combined with their stringent regulatory requirements, makes risk management a top priority.

The Bank of Things (BoT): What IoT Brings to Fintech Software Development

IoT is driving the digital metamorphosis in the banking industry. The surge in internet-enabled devices, like smartphones, tablets, and smartwatches, signifies an increase in opportunities for fintech software development to scale their business through the Bank of Things (BoT). IoT technologies are enabling real-time connections, making banking more efficient and customer-centric.

How Backend Driven UI is Changing the Approach to Mobile Development?

Most developers who upload mobile apps to the App Store or Play Market have likely encountered unexpected bugs in new releases. To address this issue, a new build with the fix must be created and checked again by the platform where they are uploading. They also have to wait for the approval process again for the new version to be released. Unfortunately, this entire process takes a considerable amount of time, but there is an alternative way.

Non-functional Requirements: What They Do, Examples, and Best Practices

Developing high-quality products involves careful definition and tracking of both functional and non-functional requirements (NFRs). But what exactly are non-functional requirements? And what's the best way to keep track of them? Let’s dive into what non-functional requirements are and how they compare to functional requirements, review some common types of non-functional requirements with examples, learn best practices for writing them, then discuss how to track and manage them.
