But still, with RESTful APIs you can give the server data to people who need it without having to give away database credentials...It can be done remotely already
I am not getting your argument. Without APIs or using credentials how will you retrieve data from a remote database?Can't you do that already? Is there any reason to give Db credentials?
I suppose you already have some web admin tool, create a function to return for example online players and give the URL to your friends to post in their A3 blog or anything.
Does that require to give them db credentials?
