The reality is that getting consistent APIs is hard – particularly those that are done by distributed teams. For the record – I vehemently hate SOAP APIs and the SOAP mindset. I dislike RPC-style operation names tunneled over HTTP. I frown and cringe whenever I see unnecessary custom headers and complicated formats. I wish POST+XML goes away. I wish every API gets rewritten to the modern understanding of HTTP and REST, serving JSON. But I would rather spend my time enabling interoperability than preaching for consistency.<br/> <p><strong>Tags:</strong> #apis #rest #rpc #webdev</p> Sat, 19 Nov 2011 18:52:11 +0000 linkding-ssg:bookmark:19795 apis rest rpc webdev http://qconlondon.com/london-2009/file?path=/qcon-london-2009/slides/SteveVinoski_RPCAndItsOffspringConvenientYetFundamentallyFlawed.pdf <p><strong>Tags:</strong> #corba #distributed #rest #rpc #soap #webdev</p> Mon, 23 Mar 2009 16:33:28 +0000 linkding-ssg:bookmark:12076 corba distributed rest rpc soap webdev
