Using an API strategy as a foundation for BPM

Business Process Management is an important part of continuous improvement and business transformation, but many organizations struggle with implementing it effectively. Learn how a holistic API strategy, API-led connectivity, can help your organization implement BPM with ease.

This whitepaper will cover:

• An overview of Business Process Management
• A new way of thinking about implementing BPM with APIs
• A walkthrough of a use case on how an organization uses API-led connectivity to successfully implement BPM

Not all APIs are created equal

A great API encourages developers to use it and share it with others, creating a virtuous cycle where each additional successful implementation leads to greater engagement and more contributions from developers who add value to your service.

Unfortunately, too many API providers build their APIs before thinking through the critical success factors, resulting in APIs that fail to meet business objectives. Delivering a great API isn’t hard if you follow a few proven principles.

In this paper you’ll learn:

• What developers really want from your API
• How to make your API stand out from the crowd
• Strategies for driving broad developer adoption
• A fool-proof way to design for great user experience
