The latest News and Information on API Development, Management, Monitoring, and related technologies.
The majority of monitoring and management solutions used in enterprises provide their customers with APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) and a CLI to facilitate DevOps type workflows.

In this post we’ll focus on a simple but key feature that helps Splunk Synthetic Monitoring users create robust checks for availability, response time, and multi-step processes: Request Headers
Go, often referred to as Golang, is a popular programming language built by Google. Its design and structure help you write efficient, reliable, and high-performing programs. Often used for web servers and rest APIs, Go offers the same performance as other low-level languages like C++ while also making sure the language itself is easy to understand with a good development experience.
I have been playing around with the Trello REST API recently. To my surprise, there doesn't seem to be any actively developed client package for.NET and Trello doesn't show examples in C# on their website. Here's a quick overview of what I have learned.
