Platform Engineering: Enhance the developer experience, establish secure environments, automate self-service tools, and streamline workflows
The dawn of observability across the SDLC has fully disrupted standard performance monitoring and management practices. See why.
When assessing prominent topics across DZone — and the software engineering space more broadly — it simply felt incomplete to conduct research on the larger impacts of data and the cloud without talking about such a crucial component of modern software architectures: APIs. Communication is key in an era when applications and data capabilities are growing increasingly complex. Therefore, we set our sights on investigating the emerging ways in which data that would otherwise be isolated can better integrate with and work alongside other app components and across systems.
For DZone's 2024 Modern API Management Trend Report, we focused our research specifically on APIs' growing influence across domains, prevalent paradigms and implementation techniques, security strategies, AI, and automation. Alongside observations from our original research, practicing tech professionals from the DZone Community contributed articles addressing key topics in the API space, including automated API generation via no and low code; communication architecture design among systems, APIs, and microservices; GraphQL vs. REST; and the role of APIs in the modern cloud-native landscape.
