This article explores the different aspects of API design and compares the REST, GraphQL, and RPC patterns. It discusses the considerations for schema definition, data model complexity, data updates, data types, filtering/sorting/pagination, environment/tooling, observability/scalability, error handling, versioning, and access controls.
