Whitepaper – 7 steps to cultivate a thriving API ecosystem

With an API ecosystem, businesses can democratize access to their existing assets and capabilities through APIs that can be securely shared with external parties. An API ecosystem extends the value of these APIs by bringing internal and external stakeholders together to share knowledge, tools, and assets. This allows organizations to stay agile, deliver faster, and maximize investments. MuleSoft, in partnership with ProgrammableWeb, has created a baseline methodology for establishing an API ecosystem with a customer-centric mindset.

In this whitepaper, you will learn how to:

  • Co-create value partners, customers, and third-party developers.
  • Treat APIs as products through design, delivery, and consumption.
  • Build your organization’s roadmap for creating an API ecosystem.

Whitepaper – Your Roadmap to Government IT Modernization

Today, government IT teams are expected to deliver more services with fewer resources. Consequently, many agencies have prioritized legacy modernization, interoperability and shared service models as a means towards increasing IT delivery capacity.

But those approaches are easier talked about than executed. As agencies embark on legacy modernization, it becomes imperative to open up the existing technology so that new innovations can be delivered as needed in a secure way.

In this guide, produced in partnership with Govloop, we will discuss

  • A five-play roadmap to help those in government get a better sense of where to start on modernization projects.
  • An overview of the Information Technology Modernization Fund (ITMF).
  • Featured government success stories highlighting their modernization projects.
  • The IT Modernization Lifecycle, based on the recent report by the American Council for Technology-Industry Advisory Council.

Whitepaper – Accelerating government IT innovation

Evolving citizen and constituent expectations have created the imperative for government to digitally transform. Delivering on digital transformation grows more challenging by the year, as the proliferation of modern technologies (e.g. SaaS, mobile, IoT) forces IT teams to rethink how to best deliver projects to their constituents and deliver on their mission.

Microservices have emerged as a means through which government IT teams can increase project delivery speed without compromising on security. This whitepaper discusses the role microservices can play in government, and how API-led connectivity helps agencies to more effectively and securely implement a microservices architecture.

Readers will learn:

  • Why government IT teams must move beyond point-to-point integration.
  • How API-led connectivity supports microservices adoption in government.
  • How government can use MuleSoft’s FedRAMP In Process integration platform to rapidly develop APIs and microservices.

Whitepaper – API-led Connectivity for Australian Government

In the wake of recent legislative pressures and the formation of the Digital Transformation Agency, Australian state and federal government agencies face an imperative to deliver superior digital services to employees and citizens without a corresponding increase in budget. As a result, many agencies have turned to IT modernisation as a means of driving more cost-effective digital transformation.

The key to successful execution of digital transformation initiatives depends on a new approach to integration and API strategy called API-led connectivity.

    In this whitepaper, you will learn:
  • Why Australian government agencies must change how they deliver IT projects, and the role integration and an API strategy play in supporting the modernisation of government IT
  • How to build out an API-led architecture within a government agency to realise 2-5x increases in IT productivity
  • How best practice from initiatives like Service NSW provide a model for government agencies to pursue digital transformation and government IT modernisation
