Vendor API Libraries
Explore the stability risks associated with vendor API client libraries in distributed systems. Understand how blocking operations and deadlocks arise from unsafe coding practices, and learn why vendor libraries often cause unpredictable behavior that can impact overall system uptime and performance.
Client API libraries
It would be nice to think that enterprise software vendors must have hardened their software against bugs, just because they’ve sold it and deployed it for lots of clients. That might be true of the server software they sell, but it’s rarely true for their client libraries.
