Key Attributes: API and SOA


API and SOA Convergence

API technology focuses on consumption of enterprise resources

• API Marketing• Analytics• Performance

Management

• Developer Engagement• Cloud Presence• Monetization• Traffic Management

SOA technology focuses on production of enterprise resources

• Enterprise Integration

• Enterprise Security• Enterprise

Standardization

• Enterprise Service Lifecycle

• Enterprise IT Reuse• Infrastructure

Reliability


Models of Convergence: “A” and “B”

Convergence Model “A” lets consumption and production grow independently of each of other. Any interaction is ad-hoc.

Convergence Model “B” favors consumption over production. Service production capabilities diminish over time.


Convergence “A” and “B” Risks

High cost, overlap, and confusion trying to run multiple management solutions and multiple runtime gateways

Loss of critical service consumption and service production capabilities, hampering new mobile and digital business strategies

Slow, ongoing and expensive ad-hoc integrations that offer low quality solutions to critical consumption and production challenges

Lack of access to critical backend enterprise data crucial to mobile and cloud enablement

Model A

Model B


Recommended Model of Convergence: “C”

Convergence Model “C” unifies service consumption and production. Each area coevolves over time to bring the strengths of each to the enterprise.
