Building business resilience with API management

Over the last several years, as digital services and interfaces have become the primary way businesses interact with their customers, maintaining ‘business as usual’ has demanded digital transformation. In difficult times such as these, however, it may be tempting to put digital transformation projects on pause until budget surpluses return. This is a mistake.

The Path of Most Resilience

Looking at business resilience in a wider context, digital transformation is the key driver of innovation and operation efficiency during times of uncertainty. Whether you are facing challenges or opportunities, you must be able to reconfigure the things you already have to meet internal and external demands. More than ever before, your customers, developers, and partners look to APIs to drive operational efficiency, accelerate innovation, and create rich customer experiences.
