!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] is extremely important and involves the driving [{$pagename}] via a targeted [API Portal]
[{$pagename}] is a very important phase for [APIs] since the capacity for revenue generation is directly related to their level of [Adoption].
For any [API] to succeed, it is important that the [API] is:
* Easy for interested developers to find
* Easy to learn to use
* Supported by both the [API] provider and peer developers
The [API] technology must also be self-service via the [API Portal] so potential developers can get access to resources and get started anytime, anywhere. Since consumer [APIs] are usually commodity services, the switching cost is extremely low. Therefore, the [API] provider offering the easiest adoption experience for developers will have an advantage over its competitors. For example, if [Google] Maps makes it too difficult to adopt, developers will simply switch over to Bing Maps.
Enterprise [APIs] are different from consumer [APIs] when it comes to distribution. Typically, enterprise [APIs] are only available to trusted business partners and the developer portal is often closed to public access.
For example, companies like American Express or HSBC cannot allow public access to their enterprise [APIs] that transmit sensitive financial data and execute financial transactions. To gain access to enterprise [APIs], partners are usually required to sign a contract, negotiate a service level agreement (SLA), or complete a security audit. If enterprise APIs will be exposed to the general public to generate partnership interest, [API] traffic from unapproved applications must be routed and confined to a sandbox environment for isolation, with demonstration data only.
Enterprise [API] developers are often "captive" developers who may not be able to simply switch over to another [API] provider, and the business relationship requires that they use the prescribed [APIs]
[{$pagename}] is often very important to get off the "legacy" system that was used prior to the new [API]
[{$pagename}] and the "proper" implementaion is often overloked. If you do not provide "proper" implementaion [Examples] for developers. We have seen several [unfortunate events] arize due to the improper implentaiton of you may find there are [cybersecurity] effects
