Meeting performance requirements in the platform
The speed at which an API can receive, handle, and process requests to communicate with or supply data to other applications or services is referred to as API performance.
The API performance can be measured by the following factors.
Response time
This is the duration it takes for an API to respond to a request. Payload size, server processing, and network latency are some of the variables that affect it. It is a crucial indicator of user effectiveness and satisfaction.
Throughput
This is the number of requests an API can handle in a given amount of time. The throughput is affected by concurrency, load balancing, and server resource allocation. It is an essential indicator of dependability and scalability.
Error rates
This is the percentage of errors returned by your API in a given amount of time. The error rates are affected by factors such as the quality of code, exception handling, quality checks, and validation...
