The efficient use of mobile and digital applications is essential for companies today. High scalability, reliable performance and real-time data streaming are central components of modern applications. But while under the surface of the applications efficient infrastructures ensure a smooth application, the crucial success factor is the ease of use of an app. The trend towards decentralized systems and cloud infrastructures is making one aspect of usability increasingly important: Application programming interfaces (APIs).
In 3 chapters this whitepaper provides an overview of the most important aspect of a successful API strategy.
