- 37. API strategy basics What is the business objective in making the API available? Who is the company sponsor for the API? Who will use the API? (Internal staff, partners, or external developers) What assets could be made available through an API? Who should have access to each type of available asset? How should the API make those assets available? How do developers discover the API and what applications could be constructed ? What will motivate developers to use the API to create applications? What support do you provide for the API? What pricing model is used for the API? How do you measure success?

- 42. Best Practices Begin the developer Onboarding discussion early in the game. Have discussions with partner app developers and establish and agree on API Plan versioning and communication procedures For Public consumers understand the use cases and focus on the security considerations at the earliest opportunity. Runtime components that store data or data sources must always be in the secure zone. These must be protected by Enterprise security appliances or servers. Secure the Portal Server using the DataPower Web Application Firewall
- 43. Best Practices ..Contd Understand early on what Runtime Environments and Developer/Management Environments will be required for the API Cloud. API Success requires the integration of API development cycles with the overall enterprise devops processes API Monitoring: Integrate with Enterprise System Level Monitoring An Infrastructure that can be dynamically scaled and configured based on API usage will be critical for success
