Enterprise API
Rapidly architect, configure and deploy a customised Enterprise API platform.
Why API-First?
An API-first strategy, correctly implemented, can support resilient business scale up – enabling seamless interconnect between domains across an organisation.
For many organisations, historically, API development has been ad-hoc and organic, with APIs developed as an afterthought. This can lead to; security issues, poor documentation, no discoverability, poor observability, a lack of RESTful best practices, poor developer experience, complex consumption patterns and challenging system integration.
Building APIs for external consumption?
Adherence to good RESTful API design and OpenAPI standards is important to your customers.
Benefits
Centralise Heavy Lifting
Central point for API authentication, authorisation and SSO, frees developers to concentrate on business value activities.
Discoverability & Documentation
Central developer portal and client generation enable teams to discover and consume APIs at pace.
Improved Observability
Centralised observability for APIs. All logging, metrics and alarms are in one place.
Improved Developer Flow
Accelerate API Development with customisable build and deployment pipeline templates.
Governance & Compliance
Meet regulatory requirements for standards such as SOX and DORA with a proven platform architecture.
Event-Driven Microservices
An API platform forms a core part of any event-driven architecture, supporting rapid microservice development and deployment.
On Premise / Hybrid Cloud
A common API Strategy across providers and on-premises simplifies system integration.
Enterprise API Accelerator
For organisations planning or executing cloud modernisation programs, transitioning to an API-first approach, needing to connect on-premises systems to AWS or hybrid clouds, aiming to accelerate developer productivity, adopting APIs and microservices, or building APIs in regulated environments.
Rapidly architect, configure and deploy a customised enterprise API platform tailored to your specific needs. Using our pre-canned IaC templates and expertise in AWS API Gateway, Kong, Kong Konnect, Backstage, AD/SSO, Lambda, GitHub/GitLab, CodeBuild, and CodeDeploy.
Case Study – Financial Services Customer
The Problem: Many heterogeneous internal APIs built up over years of organic development on-premise and in the cloud. Regulated environment (SOX and SOC2).
The Solution: API-first mindset and a centralised API Gateway to handle authentication, observability, discovery and documentation. Standardised templates, client generation and build pipelines for low friction API development.
The Outcome: API development time was significantly reduced. Business domains focus on value generation, not infrastructure. All APIs secured and audits passed.
