In a typical REST request, the order of interaction is:
API Client: The client initiates the request to access data or functionality exposed by the API.
API Interface: This represents the contract or the definition of the API, often specified in OpenAPI or RAML. It defines the endpoints, request/response formats, and other API details.
API Implementation: This is the actual backend logic that processes the request and returns the response. It interacts with databases, other services, or performs business logic to fulfill the request.
