In government agencies around the world, large enterprise legacy systems are what stand in the way of desperately needed modernization programs. Such legacy systems can be large enterprise resource planning (ERP) implementations or custom-built applications using complex codebases. Simply put, they are not supportable, upgradable, and do not provide the rich user experience customers have become accustomed to.

There is an understated art to building good APIs – ones that are easy to integrate with, have high operational availability, offer readily attainable performance insights, and are easy to maintain. But if you have ever had to build an API from scratch, there is no denying that it is hard – and it gets much more complicated when you aim to deliver a quality API.

This guide will take you through the steps to design an API, build it, and deploy it to production. The process will take about 20 to 40 minutes to complete all steps. The project is to build a straightforward API to retrieve product data. You will be provided with the API specification, instructions for what tools to use, relevant scripts and all steps to get the API live.

Organizations invest in software with the idea that the new tools will deliver a variety of benefits.

Whether it's an asset management solution, payroll system, or procurement application, technology has the ability to save organizations substantial amounts of money by streamlining your business processes.

Dev teams are stacked against an incredibly high bar of software quality, consistent end-UX, and tight release windows. While manual testing remains a cornerstone of quality, leveraging test automation enables enterprises to scale testing and meet demands for coverage and capacity. Low-code test automation provides a great place to start; it circumvents current challenges in talent pools, increases coverage, and iterates quickly.

Insurance companies, like those across many other industries, struggle with systemic issues brought on by disjointed, outdated core technologies. To help minimize the strain disconnected systems can cause, Appian invests in experts with years of first-hand experience to deliver digital solutions that can increase efficiency and improve the customer experience.

For the future of business, merely maintaining the status quo won’t be enough. Organizations need to both improve the speed at which they are building applications and expand their pool of developers. Sound challenging? Low-code can help.

Here at Appian we're really excited to have released our low-code data security feature earlier this year. If you're not sure what that is, you're in good company.
