Exposing APIs - third party or homegrown?
- by amelvin
Parts of the project I'm currently working on (I can't give details) will be exposed as an API at some point over the next few months and I was wondering whether anyone could recommend a third party API 'provider' (possibly Mashery or SO advertiser Webservius). And I mean recommend in the 'I've used these people and they are good' sense because although I can google for an answer to this question it is more difficult to get truly unbiased opinions.
As an addendum is there much mileage in creating a bespoke API solution and has anyone had any joy going down that road?
Thanks in anticipation.
