As enterprises continue their digital transformation journeys, their biggest challenge is data integration. With business units moving too fast for traditional integration strategies, lack of middleware support for new integration design patterns, and a lack of standards for how interfaces are designed, developed and supported, digital transformation is proving elusive for many organizations.
APIs are the glue that connect the digital world. For organizations to deliver digital transformation and innovate at the speed of market leaders, it is critical to discover, connect, and reuse software assets using APIs.
The next generation of integration is no longer just about connecting systems. A digital business requires a connected enterprise across all layers of the operating model.
