Scalable APIs

We're back virtually for June and this month we'll learn about scalable APIs.

We're going to be using Zoom for the event - the link will be added a couple of days beforehand.

So grab your own pizza and a drink and join us for an evening of informative talks.

A big thanks to our sponsors SR2 (https://www.sr2rec.co.uk/), Ents24 (http://www.ents24.com/), Brightpearl (http://www.brightpearl.com/) & OneSub (https://onesub.io/) who are supporting us and are helping make the virtual event happen.

Our talks are:

• Scalable APIs in 2021: trends, schemas, tooling.
  Ismael Velasco

This talk will review design principles of scalable APIS, the role and range of API schemas, the shift to API First approaches and the emergence of API development environments and adjacent tooling for API design, testing, observability and discoverability.

• A Lightning Talk?
  If you're interested in giving a lightning talk (only needs to be 10 minutes or less), then please let us know

Unfortunately we can't head anywhere afterwards for a drink, but we'll keep the chat going so that you can chat with each other.

Once the talks are finished, we'll open up the meeting so that everyone who wants to can turn on their cameras and microphones to join in the conversation.

You can also join us in Slack any time, just head to https://slack.phpsw.uk

It's going to be a bit different this month as we're all online, but we expect the night to roughly run as:

• From about 6:45 you should be able to join the event.
• At 7pm, we'll do a quick welcome talk and some community announcements
• At ~7:10pm we'll have our lightning talk
• At ~7:20pm we'll have our main talk
• We finish talks at ~8:30pm, but will keep the event going till 9pm (or beyond) so you can join in the conversation

How is this online thing going to work?

We've decided to use Zoom to host the event.

You'll find the link for the webinar under the location section of this event. You'll be able to access the event from the start time and it will prompt you to install a client if you wish/need to. There is also a web client available.
On joining you will be asked for an email address. We're not messaging attendees etc. so this can be a non-real address.

Note: We will be restricting video and screen sharing to hosts and speakers only until after the talks.

Please be aware that our code of conduct (https://phpsw.uk/code-of-conduct) still applies.

As always, a big thanks to our meetup sponsors Ents24 (http://www.ents24.com/), Brightpearl (http://www.brightpearl.com/) & OneSub (https://onesub.io/) without whom we wouldn't be able to put on our meetups.
