Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is API-first development?

API-first means designing the API contract before implementation. This ensures consistent interfaces, enables parallel development, and makes your platform easily extensible. Masarrati uses OpenAPI/Swagger specifications for all API designs.

How do you secure APIs in production?

Through OAuth 2.0/JWT authentication, rate limiting, input validation, API gateways, DDoS protection, encryption in transit, and regular security audits. Masarrati follows OWASP API Security Top 10 guidelines.

Can you build an API marketplace or developer portal?

Yes. Masarrati builds developer portals with interactive documentation, sandbox environments, API key management, usage analytics, billing integration, and community features for API monetization.

What is the difference between REST, GraphQL, and gRPC?

REST is simple and widely adopted. GraphQL lets clients request exactly what they need. gRPC is fastest for internal microservice communication. Masarrati recommends the right protocol based on your use case and consumer needs.

How do you handle API versioning?

Through URL versioning (v1/v2), header-based versioning, or contract-driven approaches. Masarrati implements backward-compatible changes, deprecation policies, and migration guides to minimize breaking changes.
