IoT is Digital Business
• Digital Business is everywhere
• Digital Business is the new Normal
• Digital Business is forcing us to change
8
Digital Business is about:
• Customer Experience
• Customer Engagement
• « Customer first » strategy
9
What is “Customer First” ?
• The right message
• To the right customer
• At the right time
• Everywhere
• On any device
10
Impacts on your IT architecture
• Architecting for
Mobile isn’t enough
• Customer experience
goes across channels
• Omni-channel
experiences require a
new approach
• Digital products are
King
11
Focus on 3 key points
• Allow the customer experience
• Be able to integrate the partners into
this customer experience
• Allow partners to allow this customer
experience too
12
How to get there ?
• All those channels need to be properly
integrated.
• According to Gartner, in 2020, two thirds of
new integration projects will occur beyond the
firewall.
• APIs are the glue for those new integration
challenges.
• Adopt an “API
First” approach.
13
What is API First?
The API
is the
Contract
APIs are
a
product
API
First!
Accenture
• Own lifecycle
• Easily consumable
• Self discoverable
• Documented
14
API First vs SOA
APIs
…And the
product
“This is
what I
need…”
API Management
The API is
the
contract
SOA/ESB
“Here is
what I
have to
offer…”
WSDL is
the
Contract
Backend
App is the
Product

From SOA to API First

Making API First Work

Your Path to IoT

• Live in the API Economy:
innovate, partner, try, fail,
improve, retry and succeed
