APIs are a major driver of growth…

. . . and demand for APIs has created opportunities for new ventures and
investors in API management, but not in monitoring
• Apigee: Launched 2009 - $35M F Round August 2013
• Mashery: Launched 2007 - Acquired by Intel: April 2013 $180 million
• Layer 7: Launched 2002 – Acquired by CA: May 2013 $155 million

API Performance is highly variable
• Slow responding APIs impact user
experience
• Apps get blamed for 3rd party
performance issues
• APIs run with persistent error rates
• No complete third-party functional API
testing available
• API ping tests or one-off tests don‟t
provide necessary coverage or deliver
trend data and can‟t handle multi-part
API calls

APImetrics is a complete end-to-end third-party service for API
performance monitoring and alerts
