00:00:00,210 --> 00:00:07,650
In this video, we are going to talk about choosing between HTTP API and the rest API in Amazon API

2
00:00:07,650 --> 00:00:08,310
Gateway.

3
00:00:09,490 --> 00:00:15,160
Actually both raised and HTTP API is doing the same thing in terms of to creating restful APIs.

4
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:22,240
But we can say that HTTP API type is lightweight version of the restful API in order to be more cost

5
00:00:22,240 --> 00:00:23,110
efficient.

6
00:00:23,110 --> 00:00:27,040
But of course, HTTP API has less features than rest API.

7
00:00:27,610 --> 00:00:35,140
So HTTP API are designed for low latency and cost efficiency integrations with ADA services, including

8
00:00:35,140 --> 00:00:37,420
ADA Lambda and HTTP endpoints.

9
00:00:37,930 --> 00:00:44,960
Previous generation raised APIs currently offer more features and you can see the development feature

10
00:00:44,980 --> 00:00:50,200
comparison of both HTTP and rest API on the image of the slide.

11
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:57,460
See some advanced development features only include for rest APIs like API, caching, request, body

12
00:00:57,460 --> 00:00:59,070
transformation and so on.

13
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,780
These features only include rest APIs.

14
00:01:02,290 --> 00:01:09,670
During the course we will use all types of Amazon API Gateway APIs, but mostly we will use rest API

15
00:01:09,670 --> 00:01:12,640
one exposing APIs to our microservices.
