- REST (Representational State Transfer)
- An architectural style for designing networked applications.
It emphasizes stateless communication, the use of standard HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE), and resources identified by URLs.
GraphQL
A query language for APIs that allows clients to request exactly the data they need, nothing more and nothing less.
This efficiency is a major advantage over REST, where endpoints often return fixed data structures.
SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol)
A protocol for exchanging structured information in the form of XML messages over a network.
gRPC (Google Remote Procedure Call)
A high-performance, open-source framework for remote procedure calls (RPCs).
It uses Protocol Buffers (a compact binary format) for data serialization.
Webhooks
A mechanism for real-time communication between applications.
A webhook is essentially an HTTP callback triggered by a specific event in one system, which sends a notification to another system.
WebSockets
A protocol providing full-duplex communication channels over a single TCP connection.
WebSockets enable real-time data exchange between a client and a server.
MQTT (Message Queuing Telemetry Transport)
A lightweight publish-subscribe messaging protocol designed for low-bandwidth, high-latency, or unreliable networks.
It is commonly used in IoT (Internet of Things) applications.
AMQP (Advanced Message Queuing Protocol)
An open standard protocol for message-oriented middleware.
AMQP provides features like reliable message delivery, routing, and queuing, making it suitable for enterprise integration scenarios.
EDA (Event-Driven Architecture)
A software architecture pattern where applications react to events (e.g., user actions, sensor readings).
EDA promotes loose coupling and scalability.
EDI (Electronic Data Interchange)
A set of standards for exchanging business documents (e.g., purchase orders, invoices) electronically between organizations.
EDI is widely used in supply chain management and logistics.
SSE (Server-Sent Events)
A server-push technology that allows a server to send updates to a client over an HTTP connection in a unidirectional manner.
