The document outlines the creation of APIs for databases using REST, gRPC, and GraphQL, detailing objectives such as providing a working API, implementation details, and hints for database interactions. It includes examples of data models, application workflows, and database access patterns, along with demos and tools in action. Additionally, it discusses the benefits and complexities associated with different API architectures.

Objectives
1. Provide you a working API implementing Rest, gRPC
and GraphQL
2. Give implementations details through Demo
3. Reveal hints to choose and WHY, (specially to work
with Databases)

14. 14
Create API for your databases Rest, gRPC, GraphQL
@clunven | @vxdmicroservice | #microservices
+ Resources Oriented
+ Decoupled client and server
+ API can evolve over time (versioning)
+ Reuse HTTP
 Mutations
 Create Read Update Delete
 Servlerless endpoints
- Big Payload
- Functions exposition
- No ad hoc discoverability

15. 15
Create API for your databases Rest, gRPC, GraphQL
@clunven | @vxdmicroservice | #microservices
+ Very large network of services
+ High Performance
+ Streaming
 High Performance
 Action/Function oriented API
 Streaming & Async
- Strongly Coupled
- No discoverability
- Function exposition

16. 16
Create API for your databases Rest, gRPC, GraphQL
@clunven | @vxdmicroservice | #microservices
+ Low network overhead
+ Typed schema
+ Relations
 Latencies matter (mobile)
 Service aggregation
 Nice for clients – caution for Server side
- Complexity
- Caching
- Versioning
- Still early
