Hi,
I have around 4+ years experience as a technical support engineer for Microsoft processes like windows, exchange server and worked on both b2c and b2b environments. I would like to get in Vmware as a support specialist role or technical support engineer. I don't hold a degree at the moment, but doing a distance degree now. Will VMware consider this and is there any way for me to get in for these roles? Please share your comments.VMware

Anyone referring for FAANG companies?
Those two things are for totally different use cases. RPA processes don’t necessarily expose any of their outputs to other processes. You can have an RPA process run on your local machine without an internet connection. An API is used to expose a service or some kind of data to a consumer in a standard format. An API is also stateless, whereas an RPA process very well could carry state. So you’re talking about two totally different things
My SM would always call RPA as “the poor man’s API”. When u can use an API, use it.
Depends on a number of things. Volume, concurrency, how many API calls you need to make to get the job done, development effort, error handling with the API vs. the bot, and the maintenance cost. For example, if you have to build 3 different API calls to make through possibly a middleware or ESB to get something done whereas it is just few screens through a bot, I'll go for a bot. Remember, depending on which RPA tool you use, it may not be poor man's API as they could be expensive. Plus, whatever you build in a bot can be exposed as an API too for reuse.
Not too familiar with api, but manufacturing companies use RPA quite frequently. Think automobile assembly lines
