Streaming Conversation Using The Disqus API Platform

After bench-marking APIs we’ve published to the Streamdata.io API Gallery we go through each of the individual API paths and identify the ones that have the high potential for turning into real-time streams, for use in dashboards, mobile applications, training machine learning models, and other applications. After we’ve StreamRanked them, we publish to a special listing of APIs and make sure we profile individually here on the blog. Next on the list of valuable data APIs is the commenting and discussion Disqus API platform .

Disqus is an online discussion and commenting service for websites and online communities that uses a networked platform. The company’s platform includes various features, such as social integration, social networking, user profiles, spam and moderation tools, analytics, email notifications, and mobile commenting.
