Application Service Governance

APIs allow you to expose your information to other entities for newer business processes.

The growth of the API economy, the pressing need for application rationalization, and the disruptive needs of digital business applications will continue to deeply change the market for application services governance technology and cloud services.

Gartner, The API Economy: Turning Your Business Into a Platform (or Your Platform Into a Business)

Why is it important to govern Application Services?

Application Service Governance allows your organization to reach 2 major goals

  • Multichannel transformation

    Move application logic from their respective channels to a central orchestrator to reduce the maintenance costs of each individual channel.
    The same services used by the Mobile App can be exposed via API to the Web, Contact Center App, Voice Portals, Social App, Remote branch applications etc.

  • Expose services to third parties

    Overcome the limitations of Enterprise Business solutions by exposing APIs to third-party applications that need to interact with mission critical platforms.
    Efficiently manage the services orchestration, security, performance, auditing, users, versions, and service levels.
