!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] is the process of transforming general purpose [APIs] from service providers into new [APIs] that are easier to consume by adding transformations that are specific to the business. 

[{$pagename}] is usually performed in one of these scenarios:
* there are existing "legacy" technologies being used such as [SOAP], [SML], [JMS], [SQL], [FTP], or straight [TCP] used for current access
* these is a need for use of third-party [APIs] from public-service providers (e.g. [Google] Maps) or partners (e.g. third-party logistics providers)

The [API Development] for these APIs can involve complete rebuilding of new [REST]- or SOAP-style [APIs], or utilizing a mediation technology such as a gateway to transform old interfaces.
