Using natural language (or diagrams) to describe how to break down and precisely solve a novel problem (scalably and securely) is not easy and never will be easy. The key skills needed for software engineering are: requirements gathering / analysis, abstraction, data modelling / ontology building, algorithms, modularity / separation of concerns, team building / communication, threat modelling / security, debugging / problem determination, operations and monitoring, and ultimately… Not Building The Wrong Thing.

The API design should be simple and easy to understand By avoiding unnecessary complexity and layers of abstraction we can create a more maintainable API that minimizes confusion and encourages correct usage by API consumers. The API design aims for the best possible orthogonality, meaning tha the minimum set of primitive constructs can be combined in a relatively small number of ways to build the control and data structures of the API.

The major pains when setting up load testing APIs are: Create load from multiple client nodes (distributed) that all follow the plan in sync Connect with internal / non-public APIs
