In my 18+ years of building enterprise applications, I have been early adopters of serverless architecture, which has revolutionized modern web service deployment. By offloading infrastructure management to cloud providers, web service creation has become significantly easier, allowing developers to focus solely on writing code without the burden of server or scaling concerns. Platforms like…
As a seasoned tech solution creator with over 18 years of experience, I can confidently assert that stateless web services are the foundation of scalable, efficient, and resilient distributed systems in modern software architecture. By removing the need for a server to remember information between requests, statelessness simplifies the design and increases scalability. But this…
Over my 18+ years of building enterprise tech solutions, I’ve consistently encountered the need to introduce changes to web services. This makes versioning your API essential for maintaining backward compatibility, managing updates, and ensuring smooth transitions between different versions. This TechConcept, is all about why versioning is crucial for the stability of your web services,…
Modern applications rely heavily on web services, making their high availability and performance non-negotiable. With over 18 years of experience in tech solution building, I know: monitoring and debugging are crucial practices to detect issues, optimize performance, and elevate user experience. In this TechConcept, we discuss the importance of monitoring web services, outline best practices…
The backbone of powerful applications lies in integrating diverse services, A tech requirement I’ve perfected countless times over my 18+ years of enterprise tech development. Two key TechConcept for enabling these integrations are webhooks and APIs (Application Programming Interfaces). Understanding the differences between them and knowing when to use each can significantly enhance your application’s…
In over 18 years of building enterprise-level tech solutions, one question I’m frequently asked by stakeholders is, ‘How do you ensure scalability?’ My response is always the same: through a disciplined, systematic approach as the system grows. For this, building scalable web services is essential for maintaining performance during traffic spikes and on demand future…
Error handling is critical in any application to ensure users receive clear, actionable feedback when something goes wrong. With over 18 years of tech solution-building experience, I’ve seen developers focus solely on writing code while neglecting error handling, leaving it to the testing team. However, by investing just a little effort into unit testing and…
Securing web services is crucial for protecting sensitive data and ensuring only authorized users can access your APIs. Without proper security measures, web services are vulnerable to attacks like unauthorized access, data breaches, and malicious exploitation. This guide covers key practices such as HTTPS, API keys, OAuth 2.0, JWT tokens, and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)…
In new era of software development, the terms microservices and web services often come up when discussing scalable, flexible architectures. In my 18+ years of tech-building, I can affirm that while they may appear similar and are often used interchangeably in modern development, despite their similarities, they fulfils different roles and deliver distinct benefits. Understanding…
Web services are the backbone of many applications, enabling communication between different systems over the internet. With over 18 years of enterprise-building experience, I’ve worked hands-on with every aspect of web services throughout my tech career. From hotel bookings to mobile employee attendance updates to sending alerts on messaging app, web services drive these critical…
