API Evolution Through Semantic Versioning

Lucas and Luna examine how semantic versioning transforms API design from a technical chore into a strategic asset. They explore the shift from opaque URL-based routing to explicit version headers, using a hypothetical fintech integration case where backward compatibility was lost. The discussion covers contract drift, deprecation timelines, and why treating APIs like public products reduces support costs and developer frustration. #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #APIDesign #SemanticVersioning #RESTfulAPIs #TechStrategy #DeveloperExperience #SoftwareEngineering #DigitalTransformation #APIManagement #BackwardCompatibility #ContractDrift #EnterpriseTech #SystemArchitecture #TechLeadership #CodeQuality #DevOpsCulture #ProductThinking Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
