The Industry Authority for APIs and Microservices
The API Academy provides expertise and best practices for the strategy, architecture, design and security of enterprise-grade APIs and microservices. Our free API education and certification programs are now available!
Earlier this year, the API Academy, in conjunction with the site relaunch and the new certification program, planned on a twelve city World Tour for API Academy Workshops – timing four
On June 24, Aran and Bill are joined by researchers from Aite Group to talk about both the OWASP Top 10 web-based threats and the OWASP Top 10 API threats.
Hang around the API community long enough and you’ll hear about design, developer experience, and ways to appeal to someone integrating with your programming interface. That may lead you to think of developers as the users of your API. While an important audience, developers are a conduit for the actual end users of the software
Here’s the replay of the North America API Academy Virtual Workshop from July 15, 2020. The agenda was the keynote on API strategy with John Cocke of HCL, followed by a discussion on API design with Academy members Jaime Ryan and Aran White. Jay Thorne of the Academy then discussed microservices and service mesh, and
Right now someone is powering up an original iPhone. On their home screen, they’re tapping the icon for a 10 year old app. As it loads, it calls an endpoint that a development team would rather not maintain. For many APIs, a life of suspended animation is a big part of their story. In API
In today’s app economy, more and more client interactions and transactions are occurring via the web and mobile applications, where predominantly APIs are been used for Information Exchange. Which enables modern enterprise to break the traditional barriers and expose their on-premises and cloud-based digital assets and applications to the outside world in a secure manner.
The new certification course for API Security Architect is now available. This is an in-depth, self-paced course, and by completing this course, you will be able to: Explain the unique security risks of APIs and identify typical areas of API vulnerabilities Explain the purpose of OAuth 2.0 as a framework for authorization Describe the current
After you publish your API, one of the first questions you may be asked or ask yourself is probably “who is using it?”, followed quickly by “is it working?”. Over time you’ll want to see all sorts of data about your API traffic. In the past, you may have spent months updating your endpoints to

On June 24, Aran and Bill are joined by researchers from Aite Group to talk about both the OWASP Top 10 web-based threats and the OWASP Top 10 API threats. Every month, join hosts Aran White and Bill Oakes for the reboot of our popular live webinar series, where we discuss both industry trends and
For over a decade, we’ve provided thought leadership to global organizations on designing APIs, implementing API security, and modernizing mission-critical systems with continuous API management and microservices.
We offer practical, field-tested guidance on how to use microservices and APIs to create service mesh patterns that optimize the security and scalability of multi-cloud, hybrid cloud, and on-premise IT infrastructures.
New 5G and IoT applications will demand unprecedented levels of API performance, security, and governance. Ask us how your peers are integrating APIs and Digital BizOps to get ready for the coming revolution.
