Description: A function API allows developers to expose specific functions of an application as API endpoints. This means that instead of interacting with the entire application, users can access concrete functionalities through HTTP requests. These APIs are particularly useful in service-oriented architectures, where each service can offer one or several specific functions. Function APIs are generally lighter and faster to implement, as they focus on specific tasks and allow for easier integration with other applications or services. Additionally, they facilitate code reuse and modularity, enabling developers to build more scalable and maintainable applications. In an environment where interoperability and efficiency are key, function APIs have become an essential tool for modern software development.
