Few questions... 1. Is it right understanding that APIs can orchestrate multiple microservices into a cohesive meaningful response? 2. Does it not the microservices get "Chatty"? Meaning requiring several calls to bring all the necessary part of information? 3. As we grow over the years, is it right to assume there is a possibility that conceptually APIs can transform into services and services transform into APIs? I mean, these concepts are all depends on the perspective from different view points.
Hello Srikkanthan, thanks for your questions. Our team more recently wrote a blog on APIs and Microservices and you might find this helpful - Clearing Up Misconceptions About APIs and Microservices: ibm.co/2ol2E5Z. If you are interested in more information, please provide an email address and we'd be happy to get in touch directly with you. Hope this helps!
Is it correct that the market migrated heavily from SOA to REST because the latter is simpler and faster? But then the microservices became a buzz and now the API has to make a chain of HTTP calls that can easily sum up complexity and latency. What is next?
Very good explanation and really helpful for people to differentiate API vs SOA who comes with lot of background on SOA or traditional integration experience. Thanks for sharing such a great video.
i've been looking 4 a comprehensive explanation of API's front to back. finally a review that make all sense. thank you.

This video should’ve been before the other one. Please correct the playlist.
Great explanation

Thank you thank you thank you. Was grappling with these three questions and feel much more clarity about how they work together.
Glad we could help!
thank you very much for the explanation 😊
Great hearing about the consumer focused APIs.
Good one, the overall presentation could be improved (slides), but still very useful. Thanks a lot!
Awsome explanation! Thank you!!!
@9:10 My "aha" moment.
Good one, thanks for sharing this info
It all makes sense now. Thank you for this.
Very informative video. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks.
I googled microservices vs web services and got this, so is api here web services?
Great Video.. thank you for this!
