What is middleware? (A guide to software API integrations) 

Thanks for the feedback! We’re delighted you like the video. 🙌

Thanks, we're glad you like it!

So I guess middleware work at the Session Layer, right ?

@@serge8317 By 'Session Layer', I assume you're referring to the OSI model? I'm not an expert in that particular model but I would probably consider middleware to exist in the 'transport layer' because it's primarily focussed on moving data between systems.

@@spotdev Yes I’m referring to the OSI Model. Thank you for clarifying. I’m currently working as Junior SE (Linux) and got introduced to IBM MQ which is a middleware. I don’t have a lot of knowledge for middleware. I found you through searching on RU-vid.

@@serge8317 That's great - well done for securing your Junior SE job! I hope you found the video useful. :)

You’re very welcome! Glad it helped. 😀

Thanks for the feedback, AK. We'll see if we can make a video on that topic.

I'm not able to comment on Oracle's products specifically but I can certainly comment on the difference between middleware and an API. Middleware is software that uses APIs. The middleware will receive information from one platform's API, process that data and then send the output to another platform's API. APIs are just an interface for code to send information to trigger something in software.

@@spotdev Thank you for your answer

@@spotdev Could u use your excel and CRM as an example, to make an API and middleware for that ? I m sure that will make people 100% understand.
