Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) have an enabling role in establishing digital ecosystems and coordinating digital interactions. A robust and performing technical infrastructure is essential but insufficient to ensure a sustainable thriving of digital environments. Both technical and legal stability are necessary to cherish for the mutual benefit of service providers, their users and society at large. This stability is crucial to ensure the robustness and competitiveness of digital value chains and the thriving of the European digital ecosystem.
THIS REPORT is complemented by two additional documents of API4IPS project's output: 1. API STRATEGY TECHNICAL ESSENTIALS The report analyses essential technical aspects to be considered by government organisations that aim at innovating their processes and leveraging all the potential of their API-driven technological infrastructures. These aspects include API management, discoverability, security and traceability concerns. 2. API STRATEGY ESSENTIALS FOR PUBLIC SECTOR INNOVATION – MAIN FINDINGS & CONCLUSIONS This report describes the main findings of the project and draws overarching conclusions about areas to focus when using API infrastructure in public sector innovation processes. |
