| api management magic quadrant: First, Break I. T. Ross Mason, 2016-02-25 Business as we know it is under pressure, and nowhere is that pressure more pronounced than in the IT organization. The customer experience has completely changed. The expectation of what they should get from their vendors has changed as well. Everything needs to be dynamic, always on, always mobile. They expect a personalized service. And if they don't get what they want, they will move on and take their business with them. But that is not the only pressure point on the modern business. The barrier of entry into almost every market has evaporated. With major disruptions happening in financial services, retail and healthcare, no company is too big to have the rug pulled from under them. In response to these pressures businesses are turning to technology to help them move faster and deliver more to their customer. There is an increased need to bring in best-of-breed cloud applications, mobile applications that drive better customer experiences and better, faster ways of connecting with partners and suppliers. The business is lured by purpose built applications that help them do their jobs more efficiently. The role of IT and integration today is, How do I get these connected quickly without making a mess? How do I move information between these different systems to better run my business? This book is designed to help you think about what an API-Led Connectivity strategy would mean inside your organization. How will you start to change and redefine the role of IT in your organization? What are the measurable outcomes? How can you create an environment open to change? Change is not easy, but it is necessary. This is enterprise Darwinism. If you create this new kind of new enterprise, you will find that your customers are happier, you can open up new streams of revenue, and transform your business. |

| api management magic quadrant: Netflixed Gina Keating, 2012-10-11 Netflix has come a long way since 1997, when two Silicon Valley entrepreneurs, Marc Randolph and Reed Hastings, decided to start an online DVD store before most people owned a DVD player. They were surprised and elated when launch-day traffic in April 1998 crashed their server and resulted in 150 sales. Today, Netflix has more than 25 million subscribers and annual revenues above $3 billion. Yet long- term success-or even survival-is still far from guaranteed. Journalist Gina Keating recounts the absorbing, fast-paced drama of the company's turbulent rise to the top and its attempt to invent two new kinds of business. First it engaged in a grueling war against video-store behemoth Blockbuster, transforming movie rental forever. Then it jumped into an even bigger battle for online video streaming against Google, Hulu, Amazon, and the big cable companies. Netflix ushered in such innovations as DVD rental by mail, a patented online queue of upcoming rentals, and a recommendation algorithm called Cinematch that proved crucial in its struggle against bigger rivals. Yet for all its success, Netflix is still a polarizing company. Hastings is often heralded as a visionary-he was named Business Person of the Year in 2010 by Fortune-even as he has been called the nation's worst CEO. Netflix also faces disgruntled customers after price increases and other stumbles that could tarnish the brand forever. The quest to become the world's portal for premium video on demand will determine nothing less than the future of entertainment and the Internet. Drawing on extensive new interviews and her years covering Netflix as a financial and entertainment reporter, Keating makes this tale as absorbing as it is important. |

| api management magic quadrant: Vessel Health and Preservation: The Right Approach for Vascular Access Nancy L. Moureau, 2019-06-10 This Open access book offers updated and revised information on vessel health and preservation (VHP), a model concept first published in poster form in 2008 and in JVA in 2012, which has received a great deal of attention, especially in the US, UK and Australia. The book presents a model and a new way of thinking applied to vascular access and administration of intravenous treatment, and shows how establishing and maintaining a route of access to the bloodstream is essential for patients in acute care today. Until now, little thought has been given to an intentional process to guide selection, insertion and management of vascular access devices (VADs) and by default actions are based on crisis management when a quickly selected VAD fails. The book details how VHP establishes a framework or pathway model for each step of the patient experience, intentionally guiding, improving and eliminating risk when possible. The evidence points to the fact that reducing fragmentation, establishing a pathway, and teaching the process to all stakeholders reduces complications with intravenous therapy, improves efficiency and diminishes cost. As such this book appeals to bedside nurses, physicians and other health professionals. |

| api management magic quadrant: Sicherheits- und Compliance-Management im Lebenszyklus von Web-APIs. Ergebnisse eines Forschungsprojektes an der HWR Berlin / Otto-von-Guericke-Universität Magdeburg Sandro Hartenstein, Andreas Schmietendorf , Steven Schmidt, Konrad Nadobny, 2020-04-16 Die fortschreitende Digitalisierung erfordert offene und interoperabel agierende Softwaresysteme, die sich in eine global vernetzte Welt technologieneutral, aufwandsarm und standardisiert einbinden lassen. Im zunehmenden Maße gelten durch Unternehmen, Behörden und Interessengruppen spezifizierte bzw. offerierte Web-APIs dabei als Rückgrat resultierender Integrationsarchitekturen. Entscheidend für den erfolgreichen Einsatz von Web-APIs ist die Gewährleistung des Datenschutzes und der Datensicherheit sowohl aus Sicht der Anbieter als auch aus Sicht der entwicklerorientierten Nutzer. Im Mittelpunkt der Monografie stehen dem entsprechend die Möglichkeiten einer sicheren und regelkonformen Verwendung von Web-APIs. Nach einer begrifflichen Abgrenzung wird zunächst auf sicherheitsrelevante Anforderungen eingegangen. Dafür wurden verfügbare empirische Untersuchungen ausgewertet, aber auch eigenständige empirische Analysen durchgeführt. Nach der begrifflichen Klärung der Aufgaben eines den Lebenszyklus begleitenden API-Managements wird auf konstruktive und analytische Maßnahmen zur Qualitätssicherung von Web-APIs während der Softwareentwicklung eingegangen. In diesem Zusammenhang werden auch die Möglichkeiten einer DLT-basierten (Blockchain) Authentifizierung und Autorisierung der Zugriffe auf Web-APIs untersucht und dafür einsetzbare Frameworks vorgestellt. Im Sinne des ganzheitlichen Ansatzes (DevOps) wird schließlich auf die betrieblichen Aufgaben des Sicherheitsmanagements von Web-APIs eingegangen. |
