Read docs for existing APIs. Such as AWS, Azure, Twitter, Twilio.
You can read the book - "building microservices" It gives a broad view on the available models and their respective tradeoffs
Tier 1, trailin - Thanks for the pointers.
Traditionally we build APIs for data syndication - that is customers download everything into a data store at their end and build applications there on. Have you seen such APIs from other players in the industry? Looking for some references. And also when would you choose API vs File for data syndication use-cases. What pointers should be considered?
Based on your description, it sounds like data warehouse kind of arrangement - where data for querying and analysis is offloaded on to a separate database (or database like structure that can be queried) that is read-heavy.

What kind of help you need ?
As to best practices, tradeoffs, security, suitability based on underlying return data type, latency, maintainability, naming etc. I am not sure what else but these are the kind of things that are of interest to me. So, I want to make sure I refer best resources when investing time. Hope that makes sense..
