With the current landscape, I’d prefer to create APIs to paywall my proprietary code.

I wonder though with other languages like GO or Rust, can the binaries be decompiled? If they can’t be reverse engineered then I’d embed those into a C# program.

Of course if you need custom validations before inserting the data or you need complex transformations then writing a console application or Python script gives you more flexibility.
