Introduction

APIs are still 2017 hottest industry subject alongside DevOps,

Microservices and IOT

APIs - business problem or business opportunity ?

Even LOB Execs are talking about APIs
Business benefits from extension of reach
IT Benefits come from agility, but dont pay for agility with a lack of integrity

APIs Everywhere
Inside the enterprise
On the cloud

Copyright 2000-2017 TIBCO Software Inc.

IT is seen as the Business preventer, not the enabler

IT has to protect the resources

Be Agile but controlled
Break and fix fast might work
Dont risk core Integrity

API Design

With API First design

APIs will be everywhere

APIs no longer the By-product

Of An App . Now the Product

Focus
Functionality & requirements
Usage Patterns
Deployment models

API Right Sizing

Getting the granularity right

Big is Bad, or is it ?
Just think of that all important core bank app, running on
antiquated hardware, with few ways to get at the data.
The API from hell, everyone has one WSDL based service that
does everything to every business object ?

Small is better but is it always ?

Few situations where agile isnt best
API Rightsizing through Service Composition

Focus on Functionality

Developers build business logic Shouldnt need to worry about

o Deployment Model
o Security Policies
o Handling SLAs

Copyright 2000-2017 TIBCO Software Inc.

API design

Rule 1 Keep it common

Follow a design pattern and stick to it
For example: http://www.narwhl.com

Rule 2 Not all API users are as clever as you

Full Level 3 HATEOAS is cool but is it required ?
Just Keep it simple

Rule 3 Careful what you change

Follow best practice for breaking changes

APIs as a Service

APIs will be everywhere

Management layer in the cloud to handle all cloud requests

Look for Worldwide traffic management to seamlessly route workloads

Reduced costs and faster to deploy

Offload skills requirement for IT group

Use Hybrid solution for Internal use and specific external use cases

Driving Innovation

Creating APIs that will drive innovative use is still an art, designing the
APIs that will be most effective for the target user community needs to
become a science.

IT needs to shift roles if companies are going to stay competitive and innovative. They need
to become more efficient and expose data and services in a consistent manner that provides
the same level of governance with far less delay. They need to stop being the gatekeepers
and become, instead, a service organization - they need to help their developers, analysts
and business folks get their jobs done quickly. APIs and good API management help because
all data is presented through a single layer that Ops can maintain through a simple admin
interface, no matter where those services live. Adding self service makes things move even
more smoothly. This lets ops focus on maintaining their systems and shifts a lot of the
administrative weirdness to an automated, yet secure, system.

Driving reuse

Build it and they wont come

Portal is required but not enough on it own

Actively manage and promote by an API Manager

Package up APIs into useful groups

Document, document and then document some more

Use analytics to understand how APIs are used

Solicit user feedback

Just be creative !

Microservices and APIs

Lead with API First approach

APIs align with deployable

microservices

Size is your enemy

Forgiving clients are your friends

New Event based paradigms

Event Sourcing
Event Streaming

Copyright 2000-2017 TIBCO Software Inc.

Enabling IOT and Industry 4.0

IOT
Mainly going to be streaming APIs
(sensor data)
Small payloads

Smart Manufacturing
As companies buy into the concept of Mass Customization,rather than mass
production, APIs become key
Consumers will innovation Retail app that allows for ordering of an outfit,
colour coordinated, and tailored to user specifics across suppliers.
