APIs and Web Services: What's the Difference?

[@arpanbaishya5888]

Erik,
Thank you so much for making this video!! It helped me a great deal to understand the timeline associated with these terms and also helped resolved much of the confusion that I had before watching this.

you're welcome, @arpan, good to hear that the video was helpful for you!

Thank you, Sir! These terms are used in learning any new technologies but are hardly explained and cause a lot of confusion. Thank you for making such informative videos.

I do like more you definition of API in "APIs and Microservices: ..." (api is a design/ documentation and web services are implementations). Back in 80s-90s we used the term API in relation to description of module's o function's interface only.

[@ErikWilde]

thanks for the feedback. it's always tricky comparing and contrasting things. for the microservices video, it was all about implementation versus interface. for this one here, it's all about one specific style of defining interface versus the general practice of using them.
