Connectivity is an amazing thing, by now we are all used to the instant connectivity that puts the world at our finger tips. From desktops or devices we can purchase, post, pin, and pick anything anywhere. We are connected to the world and each other like never before, but how does it happen? How does data get from “here” to “there”?
How do different devices and applications connect to each other to allow us to place an order, make a reservation or book a flight with just a few touches or clicks? The unsung hero of this connected world is the application programming interface or API.
