5 ways APIs help in uncertain times

APIs are a simple concept. They connect data, functionalities, and processes to create new digital value chains (defined broadly – from customer experiences to new business models).

With capabilities available through APIs, development teams can easily develop, test, and implement their business ideas as APIs, providing the foundation for closer, more flexible cooperation with external partners.

Regardless of how you use your APIs, it’s critical to take a strategic, rather than a tactical, view of how you plan, design, secure, and manage them. A strategic view will enable you to use your API platform to deliver continuity in uncertain times.
