Best Practices
⚡ Performance Tips
- Cache translations for repeated text to leverage our 90%+ cache hit rate
- Use batch requests for multiple translations
- Implement connection pooling for high-volume usage
- Set appropriate timeouts (recommended: 30 seconds)
🔒 Security Best Practices
- Always use HTTPS for all API requests
- Store API keys securely (never in client-side code)
- Implement rate limiting on your end to avoid exceeding quotas
- Use different API keys for development and production
