Exposed: How Secure Are Your Embedded Analytics Really?

The ever-growing threat landscape of hackers, cyberattacks, and data breaches makes data security a top priority, especially when integrating analytics capabilities directly into customer-facing applications. To make informed decisions, it’s crucial to understand how embedded analytics platforms function from a security standpoint.

Data Integrity vs. Data Quality: Here's How They Are Different

Data integrity refers to protecting data from anything that can harm or corrupt it, whereas data quality checks if the data is helpful for its intended purpose. Data quality is a subset of data integrity. One can have accurate, consistent, and error-free data, but it is only helpful once we have the supporting information for this data. Data integrity and quality are sometimes used interchangeably in data management, but they have different implications and distinct roles in enhancing data usability.

Logi Symphony Has You Prepared for New Cookie Restrictions

Embedding analytics into your application? New browser restrictions are on the way for Google Chrome that can block some third-party content that uses cookies from being accessible to users by default, in addition to restrictions in Safari and Firefox you may have already seen.

Choosing The Perfect Message Queue: Factors To Consider

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.

How To Estimate API Development Time

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.

Master Documenting Your APIs: Tips for Effective API Documentation

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.

Using Python for GET API Calls: A Step-by-Step Guide for Developers

Understanding how to make a GET request to an API using Python is an essential skill for developers. This article will guide you through the process, demonstrating how to use Python’s ‘requests’ library to fetch data, handle the full JSON object in response, and manage API errors efficiently. Step into the practical world of Python GET API calls without any detours.

Managing Application Auth for Different Audiences

Let’s pose a hypothetical scenario. You're the API product owner at the Paris, Texas Regional Airport. You're in charge of two main APIs: Flights API and Scheduling API. Flights API is primarily used by local research institutions that are interested in read-only access to information about departures and arrivals. Scheduling API is primarily used by airline partners who are interested in updating information about their flights and gates.

7 Must-Know Factors in API Development

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.
