Harness the potential of APIs for software reuse and business value creation.
When it comes to API
Management, SOA Software is one of the
disruptive key players of this industry. Its influence is more and more visible
within companies and organizations.
The new launching of its Enterprise API catalog, an enhancement to its API
Management Platform, aims to drive the creation of API
communities inside the enterprise.
Connectikpeople.co soon #Retinknow® observes that, this API catalog
combines the collaborative, open practices of external API Portals with search,
controlled visibility, selective provisioning, and integration with enterprise
security that are required for internal development.
Henceforth enterprises can embrace these APIs to drive internal application
development and integration.
Connectikpeople.co soon #Retinknow®,
has captured for you the main Enterprise-grade aspects of the API catalog:
- Search index driven: aims to make it easy for developers to find internal services and APIs. The catalog indexes discussions, documents, and published metadata.
- Flexible API and service types: it supports SOAP, AMQP, MQTT, POX, JMS services and more.
- Comprehensive documentation: aims to minimize developer workload by presenting accurate, useable documents that help the developer effectively consume the API or service.
- Group support for security and community management: can share API and service visibility only with appropriate groups and develops communities of interest around particular areas.
- Enterprise identity system support: can leverage existing identity systems, extending them to support the developer and app user communities adding modern standards such as OpenID Connect and OAuth.
- API and app lifecycle management: aims to maintain the privacy, accuracy and timeliness of the information presented in the catalog.
- External API consumption: Allows the enterprise to subscribe to an external API once, but allow multiple internal developers to leverage the same API for internal application development.
