into any contract. The development, release, and timing of any future features or
functionality described for our products remains at our sole discretion.
Performance is based on measurements and projections using standard IBM
benchmarks in a controlled environment. The actual throughput or performance
that any user will experience will vary depending upon many factors, including
considerations such as the amount of multiprogramming in the user’s job stream,
the I/O configuration, the storage configuration, and the workload processed.
Therefore, no assurance can be given that an individual user will achieve results
similar to those stated here.

Not having an API today is like not
having a website in the 1990s…
Consumers expect to access data
any time across multiple devices
Companies can re-invent
interactions with customers,
suppliers & partners
Explosion of potential clients
increases opportunity, risk and
innovation

The Business of APIs
Grow revenues…
… While reducing overhead
“$7bn worth of items on eBay through APIs”
Mark Carges (Ebay CTO)
The API which has easily 10 times more traffic then the
website, has been really very important to us.”
Biz Stone (Co-founder, Twitter)
“The adoption of Amazon’s Web services is
currently driving more network activity then
everything Amazon does through their
traditional web sites.”

Companies Need to Become an Engaging Enterprise

IT
Enterprise
App Developer
• Business Users want to
engage Customers in new
markets
• They need to Externalize the
Enterprise
• They need to get Apps in front
of these Customers
• Apps need APIs that
Externalize the Enterprise
• App Developers use APIs
• App Developers are now
External to the Enterprise
• IT Guys need to secure, scale
and support the externalized
Enterprise
• Business Users and IT Guys
needs Insights so they can
respond to business needs
The Platform
Enterprises wants to tap into
innovation from a large
community of developers, not
just developers they employ

Performance and scalability are table stakes
• High Scalability – will your API handle un-expected load?
• Secure – is it secure for common attacks?
13. 1313 © 2013 IBM Corporation
Lessons learned
• Business driven, IT owned
Design from the outside-in, not inside-out
More than a security gateway
New question everyday: strong analytics is a must
• Design for rapid change
Rapid development, independently from core systems
Minimize coding
Manage the asset, not the code
• Move quickly, think strategically
Easy to create, hard to retire
Where are your developers?
Create your own practice
14. 1414 © 2013 IBM Corporation
Success Requires Addressing Needs of Multiple Stakeholders
Business User
• How can I rapidly release &
update my APIs?
• How do I publicize my API?
• How do I measure success?
IT Operations
• How do I assemble APIs?
• How do I manage security?
• How will my infrastructure scale?
• How do I measure performance?
App Developer
• Where do I access APIs?
• How do I understand the APIs?
• How do I measure success?

A Little More Info on the Types Of API Exposures
Public, Open-To-
All APIs
Protected, Open-
To-Partner APIs
Private, Open-To-
Employee APIs
• APIs are open to any developer
who wants to sign up
• Apps are more targeted
towards end consumers
• The business driver is to
engage customers through
external developers
• APIs are open to select
business partners
• Apps could be targeted at end
consumers or business users
• The business driver is usually
different, based on the data and
type of business of the
enterprise
• APIs are exposed only to
existing developers within the
enterprise
• Apps are usually targeted at
employees of the enterprise
• The business driver is more
around productivity of
employees

Notas del editor Announcement: April 24, 2013Service Announcement DescriptionIBM Global Business Services (GBS) is announcing consulting services available for API Centric Architecture Assessment and determination of an API Centric Roadmap.Value PropositionIBM GBS will lead clients in driving the current market demands and challenges in deploying a strategy and roadmap for an API Centric program within their enterprise and external partners thereby creating a path towards generating API capabilitiesWe will lead clients in quickly getting and API roadmap in place by assessing the correct and optimal path for them to follow.OfferingToday, companies are creating value with speed and scale using Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). APIs are now the public persona for enterprises. APIs expose a company’s business assets, data or services for public or private consumption and are expanding and changing Business strategy, IT strategy and IT implementation.An API Architecture expands and modifies existing architectures for controlled, scalable exposure of APIs and supports both known and unforeseen future requirementsTherefore, an API Strategy is imperative and is needed to be understood for enabling new business initiatives. These initiatives are driven by business strategies and customer demands for enterprises entering into new markets or creating additional value in existing markets.
