The document explains the components and significance of APIs in Java, which are delivered through the Java Development Kit (JDK) consisting of the Java compiler, Java Virtual Machine (JVM), and Java API. It highlights the benefits of using Java APIs for developers, including access to third-party services and streamlined development processes. Additionally, it outlines the types of Java APIs, such as public, private, partner, composite, and web APIs.

Save API in Java For Later API in Java
API in Java is delivered via Java
Development Kit or JDK. JDK is made up of
three entities.
1. Java compiler: A pre-quoted program
used for breaking the complex user-
written codes into simple and computer-
understandable codes, known as byte-
code.
2. Java Virtual Machine (JVM): Allotted to
process the byte code and generate an
easy-to-understand output.
3. Java API: The pre-integrated software
components used for establishing a
communication between desired
software/platforms/components.
Java brings multiple pre-designed
components into action for accomplishing
the development process. Its API connects
to included components and enable
programmers to use their functionality so
that they can make most of them.
Developers can refer to the classes and
packages of available APIs and speed

Why Use The Java APIs?
The Java APIs can be a valuable tool for
developers. They let you access a wide
variety of third-party services with just a
few lines of code, which can be helpful in
solving problems or building apps that are
difficult to do without them.
Even if you have no plans to build your own
apps, Knowing how these AP!s work likely
will help make your time as an app
developer easier. ©The Importance of Using
APIs in Java
API is more than any other ordinary entity.
It's a way to make development smooth and
enhance the development experience. Here
is what significance API holds in Java.
¢ API in Java makes key operational
techniques and processes streamlined
than ever. The live example of this is The
Develop Social Intelligent Inbox. By
simply login on to this platform, using
Facebook and Twitter, allows one to pay
attention to the messages, revert to the
tagged posts, and operate on the search
items. As the platform is developed
using Java API, all these details are
presented in a unified view saving time
and effort.
Use of API in Java grants access to a
wide range of SQL support.
« Java API brings customization of high
quality accessible for developers.The Java REST API work
REST API is one of the most widely used
API in Java, along with Web API, Java Help,
Facebook.4J, and Twitter.4J. It makes code
available and usable for every related
application/program. While one is using
REST API in Java, the basic rules to be
followed are:
¢ Stateless: REST follows client-server
architecture to remain state-
independent.
Uniform interface: Applications using
REST API in Java and beyond will be
requiring the undeviating client and
server interface via HTTP and URIs
Client-server: Client and servers,
involved in the communication, are
independent of each other.
Cache: Cache is an imperative part of
REST API in Java as its presence makes
recording intermediate responses easier
than ever.
Layered: REST API features layered
structure and each layer is independent,Types of Java APIs
The five acceptable types of Java API are
explained next:

Public Java APIs are often referred to as
open Java API as they are part of JDK
and don’t need any extra payment. Also,
they are free from the areas and use
cases of their implementation.
Private or internal Java API is designed
by a particular developer/organization
and is accessible only to authorized
professionals.
. Partner Java APIs are the third-party
APIs offered to businesses for specific
operations.
. Composite Java API is basically
microservices developed using clubbing
different kinds of APIs.
. Web Java API is accessed via HTTP
protocol and is used to establish a
communication bridge for browser-
based applications/services like web
storage and web notifications.
