Providing Enterprise API Event Types
Augmenting yesterday’s story about user events across a platform being a common event-driven API pattern we are seeing, we also thought Box’s use of premium events for their user events API was worth showcasing. We haven’t seen too many APIs who have begun grouping their API event types, let alone having premium API, enterprise API, or another tier of API event types available.
The event types Box makes available are definitely higher level administrative style events, investing in event-driven architecture to help manage an entire platform. Box is focused on documents, but the approach to defining an enterprise tier of API event types applies universally. Providing a pretty interesting list of events to tune into, and turn into streams when the right amount of volume is present. https://goo.gl/D2Hu3q #DataIntegration #ML
