Key factors before choosing a blockchain API

 

Developers or development teams have preferences when choosing programming languages, architectural patterns, frameworks, or libraries. The same applies to top-level blockchain API integration, but it is recommended to check some things first.

 

The technology used. For developers, it is important to use open-source code when choosing blockchain API technology. Open source code can be tested by others to ultimately avoid errors.

 

Compatibility. Ensure that the API you have chosen can support certain coins. It is mainly used for cryptocurrency applications, but still so.

 

Performance. The more transactions or processes you need to run simultaneously, the more cautious your choices should be. Some blockchain APIs execute several transactions per second, while others run thousands of transactions. When building applications using blockchain APIs, it is worth considering microservices because they allow for handling high loads and continue to maintain response speed very fast when processing user requests.

 

Blockchain has APIs for wallet services, payment processing, blockchain exploration, and text queries. They provide WebSocket and market data APIs.
