Дякуємо :)

I have had a hard time finding information on just a birds eye view of the different types of API technology and how they basically work until I watched this video which is the best I have ever seen on this topic by far.

[@magdastein5580]

struggled a bit with all the api types - but this video gave me the insight I needed

[@kademo3258]

I took me more then an hour to watch this video along with goggling some things mentioned in it and making notes. It is sooo good. Thank you

[@akashagarwal6390]

Best gem on youtube. Pls keep doing videos like this. Nothing more nothing less.

[@pixelmasque]

that was excellent. I now feel confident not just understanding API but their history and pro`s and cons. thank you

[@billbosanquet4367]

Excellent. Full of useful information, concisely put with no waffle. Great Job 👍

[@alexwhaibe]

Amazing video. I’ve been searching for a simple explanation like this. I don’t know why there is only info about REST

[@jagdeepsinghuppal8310]

All anyone can ask for is learning content as good as in this video. ♥️ Love it.

[@AltexSoft]

Thanks for your feedback, really appreciate it ❤️

[@ashishpolinati4892]

Your videos are absolutely spot on the topic with a sleek representation of content. The travel industry based explanation is a cherry on top. Keep going guys!

[@AltexSoft]

Much appreciated for such lovely feedback, thanks

[@kurianjpanjikaran8366]

Excellent content which clearly explains the different forms of API and why each of these came into existence over time. Great work!!

[@raj-wq3cp]

I absolutely love your video! Your content is always informative and engaging, and I appreciate the effort you put into it. However, I find the background music a bit distracting at times. It would be great if you could consider removing it or lowering its volume to make it easier to focus on your amazing content. Keep up the fantastic work!

[@alexsav7427]

Very good explanation. This video contains many articles with sometimes vague answers in one flask

[@reiskoryphae]

OMG this video explained so many of my Questions about rest, grapql etc. The animations and the video cut is top-notch too. This comment may seem ironic or exaggerating, but I really am presently surprised. 😭

[@franciscocarneiro]

Amazing vid. It goes to the point. Thanks for sharing. I can really see you made a great effort to create this content.

Used to think api was a kind of module to you needed. Now this cleared things up for me. 👍

Great video! Wished it went into more detail with gRPC, PROs/CONs were not discussed.

[@alexeyshevelyov1163]

Is encrypting each message that big of a benefit of SOAP if you already using SSL, which essentially does that same thing but just for the whole payload?

[@BlaBlaBlaInDaHouse]

Fantastic video, thank you for your effort!

Such an awesome video!

[@shafieesadegh]

very well made. thanks

[@akhilk5121]

Talking about WS-SECURITY, it's stated that, the encrypted body can only be accessed if you have a token in header. How is this different from using OAuth or any token based security in REST?

[@AltexSoft]

SOAP WS-security includes the mechanisms for encrypting the whole message. OAuth and JWT are authorisation mechanisms. They aren’t designed for message encryption and you have to find your own ways to encrypt the message body or use an SLL/TLS protocol when sending the message.

Best video I've seen

[@MarkWusinich]

I thought learning curves were amount learned (Y axis) and time to learn (X axis) so a shallow learning curve would be something hard to learn (lots of time to get more info) and a steep learning curve would be easier (less time to learn more info). But I could be wrong.

[@magdastein5580]

it just refers to that you have to learn a lot -> lots of incline; whereas a shallow learning curve means that you do not have to learn that much to understand. the time, in my opinion, is no object in this allegory

[@MarkWusinich]

@@magdastein5580 I have always struggled with this. But I like it. So the Y axis goes from zero learned to easy to learn, medium to learn and hard to learn. Where as I was thinking it went from learning zero of the material, to 100% of the material.

My only complaint about this video is that the background music was soo good I kept getting distracted lol .

[@namitasatpathy]

great content

[@MasterSergius]

So, SOAP - a bit improved XML-RPC? And REST is a RPC over HTTP? And so on... Everything is RPC?

[@mohmedasrarkhodawala8144]

Which API used by GDS systems?

[@AltexSoft]

It depends on the specific API you need. GDSs offer separate APIs for checking flight status or seat canceling. Sabre mostly uses SOAP and REST APIs. The same goes to Amadeus. Travelport provides SOAP and XML APIs. You can find the required API by the links: developer.sabre.com/product-catalog?f%5B0%5D=product_type%3Asoap_api_reference newmy.travelport.com/web/developer/travelport-universal-api developers.amadeus.com/
