API Development Services
Secure, maintainable APIs that expose business capabilities without losing control of data or rules.
APIs let internal teams, partner systems, mobile apps, web applications, and automation tools use business data without each of them reaching into the database directly. IKRC designs and builds those APIs with the business rules enforced behind the endpoint, so each client goes through the same business rules and permission checks.
What We Build
- REST APIs for custom applications and platforms
- Partner and vendor-facing API layers
- Internal APIs that standardize business rules
- Authentication, authorization, rate limiting, and audit trails
- API documentation and operational monitoring
A partner integrating with your API needs to know what a failure looks like before one happens. Errors should come back in a consistent, machine-readable shape, such as the Problem Details format defined in RFC 9457. A client that exceeds a rate limit can receive HTTP 429 Too Many Requests, which RFC 6585 allows to carry an optional Retry-After header telling the client when to try again; whether your API sends it is a design decision to document. Versioning rules and deprecation notice periods should be settled before the first partner connects, since changing them later breaks code you do not control.
