Web API Frameworks

(AA-100) Approved Architectures

Only the following web API frameworks are approved for projects in Labs:

• REST

All other API types are prohibited, including:

• GraphQL

Rationale:

• We restrict the web API frameworks used in BloomTech Labs so that we can focus our resources on a subset of available technologies. By narrowing the field of choices, product quality will be improved through the sharing of common knowledge and reusable components.

• These two frameworks cover the vast majority of use cases, enjoy significant market share, and are not mutually exclusive.

Exceptions:

• None
