Evernote's public-facing API uses Thrift and serves over 3 million users. The API is used by our own clients (Mac, Win, iPhone, iPad, Android, etc) as well as a large number of third party applications and services.
As others have said, running over HTTP can help with some of the common problems, and our server side does some checking to limit the maximum message size, sets a maximum skip depth, verifies required parameters, etc. There's more detail about the API at http://www.evernote.com/about/developer/api Seth Hitchings Evernote On Wed, Apr 21, 2010 at 3:17 PM, Gary Moore <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey all, > > I've been playing with Thrift with personal projects but now my employer > (at > my behest) is considering using Thrift for a public-facing endpoint so that > others can write web clients to consume our resources.
