Best way to make insert data in logs web API. REST or WebSockets

Question

I want to make a centralized log web API, so it will have a large amount of data per seconds. the logs will comming from others WEB API

I was thinking if i make the REST API, all of the POST made need to return an answer and maybe can overload the server with so much request.

then I think in webSockets, establish a communication with the API that made the logs and only send data without necessary responses but I don't know how reliable are that.

So in this case, what method would be fastest and more reliable? Sorry if my english isn't good :(

regards.

Answer 1

WebSockets will be more efficient. Allowing you to stream your log records without having to deal with the overhead of a HTTP call for each record.
