Northeast PHP 2012

Creating an Epic RESTful API and Conquering the World

Whether you have data and functionality you want to make public to the world, or you just want a way to communicate between different projects internally, you need an API. In this session, you will learn the details of creating a RESTful API with PHP, and be able to answer the following questions:

  • What is a RESTful API?
  • Why should your product have an API?
  • How do you create an API with PHP?

The session will also include practical examples and best practices for scaling, versioning, and caching.

I have given several talks on API development at various conferences and have decided to break out the key points into there own page rather than have it embedded in each.
