Agile software development places significant value on faster processes and better-quality outcomes, but there are a lot of different techniques that teams can leverage to achieve these goals. For many, automation integration has become a major priority, but there are several benefits to be seen from manual operations like exploratory testing. Let's take a look at what advantages exploratory testing can bring to agile environments.

Explore best practices and essential tools for visibility with Kubernetes infrastructure and traffic to optimize your system's performance and security.

In the vast landscape of cybersecurity, authentication stands as the guardian of digital fortresses, ensuring that only the right individuals gain access to sensitive information and services. Imagine you’re at the entrance of a top-secret facility, and you need to prove your identity to the security personnel. In the digital realm, this is precisely what authentication mechanisms do – they verify your identity before granting access.

As the wave of AI sweeps through the technology landscape, many have hopped on board. Interestingly enough, and often overlooked, is that many AI capabilities are served through APIs. Fancy user interfaces integrate with the actual mechanisms where the magic happens: the APIs. So, when generating revenue through AI platforms, the APIs drive the revenue.

Application programming interfaces (APIs) have quickly become vital to modern businesses. APIs work by allowing different systems to talk to each other and share data. The commercial use of APIs and web APIs has skyrocketed over the last decades in accordance with the rise in app development, mobile apps, and e-commerce. However, how do you estimate API development time? Well, API creation and the development time frame will always vary from project to project.

An API (Application Programming Interface) is a set of rules and protocols that let software programs communicate with each other. It acts as an intermediary between different software or services. For example, when using a mobile app to book a hotel room, the API allows the app to communicate with the hotel’s booking system. While many REST API developers have their way of doing things, some factors in API development are generally considered essential.

Not long ago, I was handed a problem that’s no stranger to the world of programming: making asynchronous threads communicate effectively within the same process. Given the widespread nature of this issue, I expected to find an existing solution to resolve it. My search led me to the concept of message queue, which seemed promising for streamlining this communication challenge.

API (application programming interface) document works as a developer’s compass for navigating complex services. In this guide, we provide straightforward insights into crafting excellent API documentation. At the end of this article, you will know how to succeed as both creators and consumers of APIs through effective documentation.
