Swagger :: Suite of tools for API developers

Swagger is a suite of tools for API developers from SmartBear Software and a former specification upon which the OpenAPI Specification is based.

The Swagger API project was created in 2011 by Tony Tam, technical co-founder of the dictionary site Wordnik.

Swagger's open-source tooling usage can be broken up into different use cases: development, interaction with APIs, and documentation.

When creating APIs, Swagger tooling may be used to automatically generate an Open API document based on the code itself.

This embeds the API description in the source code of a project and is informally called code-first or bottom-up API development.

Using the Swagger Codegen project, end users generate client SDKs directly from the OpenAPI document, reducing the need for human-generated client code.

As of August 2017, the Swagger Codegen project supported over 50 different languages and formats for client SDK generation.

When described by an OpenAPI document, Swagger open-source tooling may be used to interact directly with the API through the Swagger UI.

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation)

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is an open standard file format and data interchange format that uses human-readable text to store and transmit data objects consisting of attribute–value pairs and arrays (or other serializable values). It is a common data format with diverse uses in electronic data interchange, including that of web applications with servers. JSON is a language-independent data format. It was derived from JavaScript, but many modern programming languages include code to generate and parse JSON-format data. JSON filenames use the extension .json. Any valid JSON file is a valid JavaScript (.js) file, even though it makes no changes to a web page on its own. Douglas Crockford originally specified the JSON format in the early 2000s. He and Chip Morningstar sent the first JSON message in April 2001. Official website :- https://json.org/

Object serialization in java

Serialization is the conversion of an object to a series of bytes, so that the object can be easily saved to persistent storage or streamed across a communication link. The byte stream can then be deserialized - converted into a replica of the original object. When you want to serialize an object, that respective class should implement the marker interface serializable. It just informs the compiler that this java class can be serialized. You can tag properties that should not be serialized as transient. You open a stream and write the object into it. Code for serialization of a java class : Data.java package com . codetalk . serialization ; import java.io.Serializable ; public class Data implements Serializable { private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L; private String firstName ; private String lastName ; /** * @return the firstName */ public String getFirstName () { return firstName ; } /** * @param firstNam

Amazon Lambda (AWS Lambda)

AWS Lambda is an event-driven, serverless computing platform provided by Amazon as a part of Amazon Web Services. It is a computing service that runs code in response to events and automatically manages the computing resources required by that code. It was introduced on November 13, 2014. AWS Lambda was designed for use cases such as image or object uploads to Amazon S3, updates to DynamoDB tables, responding to website clicks, or reacting to sensor readings from an IoT connected device. Unlike Amazon EC2, which is priced by the hour but metered by the second, AWS Lambda is metered by rounding up to the nearest millisecond with no minimum execution time. AWS Lambda can also be used to automatically provision back-end services triggered by custom HTTP requests, and "spin down" such services when not in use, to save resources. Since December 2020 Lambda supports Docker containers through ECR up to 10 GB in size. Official website :- https://aws.amazon.com/lambda
