Implementation and Integration
Enterprise and Foundation Model API Integration
Expose foundation model capabilities through secure, throttled, observable APIs and integrate them with enterprise identity, legacy systems, streaming clients, and asynchronous workflows.
Concepts
- API contracts should define timeouts, quotas, idempotency, error semantics, and request and response schemas.
- Streaming improves perceived latency but requires clients and gateways that preserve incremental delivery.
- Use identity federation and role-based authorization rather than shared long-lived credentials.
- Asynchronous patterns protect interactive services from long-running generation and downstream failures.
Exam tips
- API Gateway and Lambda fit managed request validation and lightweight FM integration APIs.
- Use throttling and quotas to bound cost and protect downstream model capacity.
- Do not expose provider credentials or unrestricted model invocation directly to browsers.
