APIs are ubiquitous and an integral part of the modern API stack. However, there are limitations to the traditional request-response model, specifically when dealing with changes of state asynchronously in a non-ugly (read: polling) way. Enter webhooks!
In this season finale of the All About APIs podcast, we speak with Tom Hacohen, the founder and CEO of Svix, a Webhooks as a service company enabling users to build a secure, reliable, and scalable webhooks platform. During our discussion, we look at what an event-driven architecture powered by webhooks looks like some key challenges, use cases and why they are essential drivers of product-led growth for API-first businesses.
