API Style Decision Tree

What kind of API do you need?

|   +-- High throughput, low latency needed? --> gRPC
|   +-- Streaming (real-time data, logs)? --> gRPC (bidirectional streaming)
|   +-- Simple request/response, team comfort? --> REST
|
+-- Public-facing API?
|   +-- Third-party developers consuming it? --> REST (widest compatibility)
|   +-- Mobile app with varied data needs? --> GraphQL
|   +-- Browser-only, simple CRUD? --> REST
