What is a LOAD BALANCER really about?
The Ultimate API Learning Roadmap
APIs are the backbone of communication over the Internet. Every developer needs to learn about APIs. Here’s a roadmap that covers the most important topics:
Introduction to APIs
API is a set of protocols and tools for building applications. Different types of APIs exist, such as public, private, and partner.API Terminologies
Various API terminologies, such as HTTP versions, cookies, and caching, need to be understood.API Styles
The most common API styles are REST, SOAP, GraphQL, gRPC, and WebSocketsAPI Authentication
API Authentication techniques like Basic Auth, Token, JWTs, OAuth, and Session AuthAPI Documentation
A good API is understandable. API Documentation tools like Swagger, Postman, Redoc, and DapperDox make it possible.API Features
Key API features include pagination, parameters, idempotency, API versioning, HATEOAS, and content negotiationAPI Performance Techniques
Common API performance techniques are caching, rate limiting, load balancing, pagination, DB indexing, scaling, and performance testing.API Gateways
Learn about API Gateways such as Amazon API Gateway, Azure API Services, Kong, Nginx, etc.API Implementation Frameworks
The most popular API development frameworks are Node.js, Spring, Flask, Django, and FastAPIAPI Integration Patterns
Learn about various API integration patterns such as gateways, event-driven, webhook, polling, and batch processing.
Over to you: What else will you add to the API learning roadmap?

Make 2025 the year you modernize your data infrastructure (Sponsored)
The new year is here. And with it comes the perfect opportunity to set a transformative goal: future-proof your data infrastructure.
Like many, you may feel daunted by the complexities of a “lift and shift” approach to modernization.
That’s why Cockroach Labs developed The Architect’s Guide to SQL Database Modernization: Your Step-by-Step Roadmap.
Designed to help you navigate modernization at your own pace, whether running applications in the cloud, on-prem, or hybrid, this guide will help you:
Assess your current state
Learn strategies to standardize, scale, and diversify your data infrastructure
Follow a simple, proven, three-step modernization framework
30 Useful AI Apps That Can Help You in 2025
AI apps are taking over the world. There’s an AI app for every conceivable use case. Here are some AI apps for different categories:
General Purpose: Perplexity, Anthropic Claude, Grok, ChatGPT, and Gemini
Writing Code: Cursor, Replit, Windsurf AI, Github Copilot, and Tabnine
Productivity: Adobe (PDF Chat), Gemini for Gmail, Gamma (AI slide deck), WisprFlow (AI voice dictation), and Granola (AI notetaker)
Audience Building: Delphi (AI text, voice), HeyGen (video translation), Persona (AI agent builder), Captions (AI video editing), and OpusClips (Video repurposing)
Creativity: ElevenLabs (realistic AI voices), Midjourney, Suno AI (music generation), Krea (enhance images), and Photoroom (AI image editing)
Learning and Growth: Particle News App, Rosebud (AI journal app), NotebookLM, GoodInside (parenting co-pilot), and Ash (AI counselor).
Over to you: Which other AI app will you add to the list?
10 Essential Components of a Production Web Application
It all starts with CI/CD pipelines that deploy code to the server instances. Tools like Jenkins and GitHub help over here.
The user requests originate from the web browser. After DNS resolution, the requests reach the app servers.
Load balancers and reverse proxies (such as Nginx & HAProxy) distribute user requests evenly across the web application servers.
The requests can also be served by a Content Delivery Network (CDN).
The web app communicates with backend services via APIs.
The backend services interact with database servers or distributed caches to provide the data.
Resource-intensive and long-running tasks are sent to job workers using a job queue.
The full-text search service supports the search functionality. Tools like Elasticsearch and Apache Solr can help here.
Monitoring tools (such as Sentry, Grafana, and Prometheus) store logs and help analyze data to ensure everything works fine.
In case of issues, alerting services notify developers through platforms like Slack for quick resolution.
Over to you: What other components would you add to the architecture of a production web app?
How do we design effective and safe APIs?
The diagram below shows typical API designs with a shopping cart example.
Note that API design is not just URL path design. Most of the time, we need to choose the proper resource names, identifiers, and path patterns. It is equally important to design proper HTTP header fields or to design effective rate-limiting rules within the API gateway.
Over to you: What are the most interesting APIs you’ve designed?Code First v.s. API First
The diagram below shows the differences between code-first development and API-first development. Why do we want to consider API first design?
Microservices increase system complexity.
We have separate services to serve different functions of the system. While this kind of architecture facilitates decoupling and segregation of duty, we need to handle the various communications among services.Separate functional teams need to speak the same language.
The dedicated functional teams are only responsible for their own components and services. It is recommended that the organization speak the same language via API design.Improve software quality and developer productivity
Since we have ironed out most of the uncertainties when the project starts, the overall development process is smoother, and the software quality is greatly improved.
Oauth 2.0 Explained With Simple Terms
OAuth 2.0 is a powerful and secure framework that allows different applications to securely interact with each other on behalf of users without sharing sensitive credentials.
The entities involved in OAuth are the User, the Server, and the Identity Provider (IDP).
What Can an OAuth Token Do?
When you use OAuth, you get an OAuth token that represents your identity and permissions. This token can do a few important things:
Single Sign-On (SSO): With an OAuth token, you can log into multiple services or apps using just one login, making life easier and safer.
Authorization Across Systems: The OAuth token allows you to share your authorization or access rights across various systems, so you don't have to log in separately everywhere.
Accessing User Profile: Apps with an OAuth token can access certain parts of your user profile that you allow, but they won't see everything.
Remember, OAuth 2.0 is all about keeping you and your data safe while making your online experiences seamless and hassle-free across different applications and services.
Over to you: Imagine you have a magical power to grant one wish to OAuth 2.0. What would that be? Maybe your suggestions actually lead to OAuth 3.Session, Cookie, JWT, Token, SSO, and OAuth 2.0 Explained in One Diagram
When you login to a website, your identity needs to be managed. Here is how different solutions work:
Session - The server stores your identity and gives the browser a session ID cookie. This allows the server to track login state. But cookies don't work well across devices.
Token - Your identity is encoded into a token sent to the browser. The browser sends this token on future requests for authentication. No server session storage is required. But tokens need encryption/decryption.
JWT - JSON Web Tokens standardize identity tokens using digital signatures for trust. The signature is contained in the token so no server session is needed.
SSO - Single Sign On uses a central authentication service. This allows a single login to work across multiple sites.
OAuth2 - Allows limited access to your data on one site by another site, without giving away passwords.
QR Code - Encodes a random token into a QR code for mobile login. Scanning the code logs you in without typing a password.
Over to you: QR code logins are gaining popularity. Do you know how it works?

[FHL] NEW Speaker Interview + FREE bonus!
Wanna know the worst feeling…?
(Well, one of the worst feelings would be to miss out on the FINAL FHL in vegas – make sure you got your ticket here →)
The SECOND worst feeling (aside from missing the FINAL FHL)…
…is when you put in ALL of your time and energy and money into building a funnel with a super awesome product…
…and when it comes time to launch it… (cricket sounds).
Nothing.
Zero interest.
Maybe a few sales… but overall, it feels like a bunch of wasted effort.
This exact scenario has played out for EVERYONE who has tried to sell something online.
It can feel maddening, especially if you don’t know what’s wrong… is it the ads? The sales page? The offer…?
Here’s what I can tell you – oftentimes it’s either the hook, the story, or the offer… get those 3 just right and you’re off to the races with lots of sales.
But…
What if I told you there is ONE little known strategy that works in-tandem with the hook, story, and offer… and if done correctly, can basically have people lining up for your offer BEFORE you’ve even launched it.
That’s what my next guest speaker is ALL about… and his name is Stu McLaren!
Stu is one of the BEST at building membership sites where people pay you month after month, allowing you to have a thriving continuity program.
He’s also the KING at getting droves of people aching to buy from you… and he does it by building a “hype machine” unlike anything I’ve seen before.
Anyway, I can keep going on and on about the incredible Stu, but I’d like for you to meet him yourself!
WATCH MY INTERVIEW WITH STU MCLAREN @ 2:30 PM ET →
That’s it for today – I just wanted to make sure you attended my interview today with Stu – who I’m told is going to “tease” a bit of what he’ll be sharing at the FINAL FHL!
Plus, he’ll be giving out his FREE marketing bonus that can help you get a jump-start before FHL!
WATCH MY INTERVIEW WITH STU MCLAREN @ 2:30 PM ET →
See you in a bit,
Russell Brunson
P.S. Don’t forget, you’re just one funnel away…

The Shortlist
Share this email
Curated by Alex Panas, global leader of industries, & Axel Karlsson, global leader of functional practices and growth platforms
Welcome to the latest edition of the CEO Shortlist, a biweekly newsletter of our best ideas for the C-suite. We’ve just spent a fantastic week at the World Economic Forum’s Annual Meeting in Davos. Every year, we collaborate with the WEF to investigate the year’s most critical issues, and our in-house institutes examine many more. In this edition, we look at the two reports we’re most excited about. We appreciate the opportunity to connect and hope you find our perspectives novel and insightful. You can reach us at Alex_Panas@McKinsey.com and Axel_Karlsson@McKinsey.com. Thank you, as ever.
—Alex and Axel
We get by with a little help from our consortium. In business, and in life, resilience is key to successfully navigating a volatile world. McKinsey’s Resilience Consortium, in collaboration with the World Economic Forum, has published a new report showcasing remarkable examples of how organizations today are responding to challenges—and specific ways leaders can bridge their resilience gaps.
Nine conditions propel a third of the women’s health gap. Our latest research on women’s health continues to explore why women spend, on average, 25 percent more time in poor health than men. Addressing nine conditions, including heart failure, endometriosis, and breast cancer, could offer a blueprint toward closing the women’s health gap—and unlock $400 billion in annual GDP.
We hope you find these ideas inspiring and helpful. See you in a couple of weeks with more McKinsey ideas for the CEO and others in the C-suite.Share these insights

The One Funnel That Changed My Life Forever
Let me take you back to my early days…
When I started my first business, I thought having a great product was enough.
Boy, was I wrong.
I wasted thousands of dollars on ads that didn’t work. I created offers that didn’t convert. It felt like I was trying everything, but nothing clicked.
Then I cracked the code—a funnel framework that transformed my struggling business into a profit machine.
Now, I want to share those lessons with YOU on the Marketing Secrets Podcast.
You’ll hear stories like:
🎙 How I turned a potato gun hobby into a 7-figure business.
🎙 The moment I realized I wasn’t just building websites—I was building sales machines.
🎙 The simple changes to my marketing that doubled my revenue overnight.Ready to learn how to apply these secrets to YOUR business?

The qualities that help today’s leaders succeed
On McKinsey Perspectives
Brought to you by Alex Panas, global leader of industries, & Axel Karlsson, global leader of functional practices and growth platforms
Welcome to the latest edition of Only McKinsey Perspectives. We hope you find our insights useful. Let us know what you think at Alex_Panas@McKinsey.com and Axel_Karlsson@McKinsey.com.

•
Modern leadership. Leading a global organization in our fragmented world is perhaps more difficult than ever, and what’s required to succeed as a 21st-century leader is distinctly different from what was required in the past, explain global managing partner Bob Sternfels and senior partner Daniel Pacthod (both members of McKinsey’s core team at Davos) and their coauthors. For instance, today’s high-performing leaders embrace continuous learning. They are willing to take risks, be curious, and approach their work with humility, rather than considering themselves to be the smartest person in the room.
•
Leadership incubators. Top teams cite an urgent need to build leadership capabilities in their organizations. While some leadership skills can be taught in the classroom, the most effective training often happens on the job. Creating a “leadership factory”—in which colleagues spend time together, provide regular feedback, and share insights—can help organizations develop great leaders. As the World Economic Forum’s Annual Meeting, in Davos, comes to a close, explore the six traits that are critical to the leaders of today and tomorrow.

WATCH TODAY’S INTERVIEW REPLAY W/ HALA TAHA HERE →
This may be her first time speaking at FHL, but Hala has been CRUSHING IT for years, profiting from growing her own podcast as well as helping others do the same.
At Funnel Hacking Live 10 she’ll be covering the wide array of things you can do to get PAID doing your own podcast: How to get started, how to get lead gens from guests on your show, pitching yourself as a guest on other podcasts, how to be a podcast sponsor and MORE!
I’ve been podcasting for YEARS, using it as a tool to provide value to my audience and drive traffic to my offers…
I had NO CLUE I could also get PAID directly from doing my podcast until I met with Hala and she 100% improved the way I approach podcasting.
And now, when you secure your FHL tickets ASAP, you’ll not only learn how to leverage podcasts to your advantage, you’ll also receive not one but TWO FREE speaker bonuses from Hala!!

[FHL] NEW Speaker Interview + FREE bonus!
Question:
How’s your heart rate…??
Oh I’m sorry… you don’t check it all the time like I am right now…??
Seeing as we’re merely DAYS away from the foot-pounding, dancing, cheering, and marketing mind-blowing amazingness that is FHL!!!
And hey, if it makes you feel any better about your webinars or presentations… I also “second guess” myself and question each slide and what I’m going to say.
It’s as if that just never goes away and you have to keep pushing forward regardless of the discomfort ;)
Did you secure your ticket to the LAST DANCE of FHL yet…?
If not, then I’m assuming you’re swimming in a pool of coins like Scrooge McDuck, and perhaps someone I should be getting advice from… ;)
However, if you’re NOT lounging in a giant pool of coins like a lost member of The Goonies, then I highly suggest you join me and THOUSANDS of other entrepreneurs who are looking to THRIVE in 2025!!
Better hurry and go here:
AND be sure to grab your discounted room along with all the other Funnel Hackers so you’re not stuck out in the desert with a Lyft driver named Sam.
Go here to book your room using the special FUNNEL HACKERS secret room block rate (shhhhh…) →
Now onto today's new speaker interview!
If you’ve ever wanted to start a PROFITABLE podcast from home, even if you’re not sure where to start, what your “theme” should be, or wonder if anyone would even listen…
…then you’re going to love today’s guest speaker!
She’s the host of the massively successful podcast, YAP (Young And Profiting) where she gives business, personal development, and marketing advice for everyday entrepreneurs.
I’m talking about Hala Taha!
WATCH MY INTERVIEW WITH HALA TAHA @ 2 PM ET HERE →
Hala not only has helped me like crazy with my own podcast, but she also COMPLETELY changed the way I look at my podcast as a business.
Listen, while it may be a running joke about “starting your own podcast”... the truth is: there is a HUGE opportunity right now in the podcast space and barely ANYONE is jumping on it.
And it’s a shame, because there’s A LOT of money to be made with a podcast IF you do it correctly (and in the way Hala can teach you)...
If you want to see HOW it’s done – how to make any podcast profitable AND fun… then you need to watch my interview with Hala TODAY @ 2 PM ET!
WATCH MY INTERVIEW WITH HALA TAHA @ 2 PM ET HERE →
OK, see you in a couple of hours!
Russell Brunson
P.S. Don’t forget, you’re just one funnel away…
P.P.S. Did you book your hotel room…?? Our room block is filling up and I would hate it if you missed out on being with your Funnel Hacker family!!! Hurry here and use our special room block rate to book your room →

Latency is a fundamental concept to consider when designing any application. It refers to the delay between a user's action and the system's response.
In technical terms, latency measures the time it takes for data to travel from a source to a destination and back. It is usually expressed in milliseconds (ms) and is critical in determining the speed and responsiveness of applications, websites, and networks.
High latency can have a profound impact across business domains:
User Experience: Slow-loading websites frustrate users and lead to higher bounce rates. A Google study shows that slowing down the search results page by 100 to 400 milliseconds has a measurable impact on the number of searches per user of -0.2% to -0.6%.
Business Operations: Delays in real-time applications like video conferencing or online collaboration tools can hamper productivity. Due to delayed page loads, e-commerce platforms suffer from reduced customer satisfaction and lower sales. For example, Amazon estimates that a 1-second increase in latency could cost $1.6 billion annually in sales.
SEO Rankings: Search engines prioritize fast-loading websites in search rankings. For example, Google’s Core Web Vitals places significant weight on metrics like First Input Delay (FID), which is directly tied to latency. High latency increases page load times, negatively affecting SEO and organic traffic.
In this article, we will learn about latency and its types in detail. We will explore top strategies to reduce latency, such as caching, content delivery networks (CDNs), load balancing, asynchronous processing, database indexing, pre-caching, data compression, and connection reuse.
Latency vs Bandwidth vs Throughput...
