What is an API?
Application Programming Interface ≈ Platform
Computers talking to each other
Exchange and manipulation of data
Essential part of the web’s success
Adam Smith’s wet dream

Hyper division of labour...

... and a network economy

Why API?
Allow people to use their own data...
... empower people–everybody loves talking about stuff
that empowers them ...
... which spreads the word about your service
Developer community–the ultimate power users
Extend your application–solve niche use cases
Conceptual clarity–the essence of your service

This story is about the added value of APIs (application programming interfaces) for modern businesses, developers and software consumers. It deals with API-fundamentals and shows how APIs are the cornerstones of modern business development (BizDev2.0). By looking at casestudies from Google Maps, Twitter, Amazon, eBay, Moo, Flickr, Netflix and other web2.0-companies, it becomes clear how APIs add value for all parties on the modern web. This presentation was given by Olaf Janssen - Open Data coordinator for the National Library of the Netherlands (KB) - as a lecture for students of the master's course "Digital Access to Cultural Heritage" at Leiden University on 13-3-2014

New technologies are changing the way people work with each other, their organization’s partners, and their customers. Employee expectations have grown and are being met by innovation that delivers greater accessibility, lower costs, and faster results. The catch? Organizations and employees need to understand, adopt, and use these new technologies that are powered by the cloud or risk being outpaced by new competitors and changes in the marketplace. Join Richard Harbridge, in this insightful Keynote session, as he shares first-hand experience and advice on the practical application of Microsoft’s cloud technology, why and how the cloud is providing significant business value in organizations today, and what successful organizations are doing to maximize the impact Office 365 can provide.

Overview of Apache Flink: the 4G of Big Data Analytics Frameworks

DataWorks Summit/Hadoop Summit

Slides of my talk at the Hadoop Summit Europe in Dublin, Ireland on April 13th, 2016. The talk introduces Apache Flink as both a multi-purpose Big Data analytics framework and real-world streaming analytics framework. It is focusing on Flink's key differentiators and suitability for streaming analytics use cases. It also shows how Flink enables novel use cases such as distributed CEP (Complex Event Processing) and querying the state by behaving like a key value data store.

Web 2.0 is the second generation of Web development. It facilitates communication, secure information sharing, interoperability, and collaboration. Web 2.0 concepts have led to the evolution of Web-based communities, hosted services, and applications such as socialnetworking sites, video-sharing sites, wikis, blogs, and folksonomies. Web 2.0 enables users to run applications entirely in a Web browser. Users own the data on a Web 2.0 site and exercise control over that data. Web 2.0 sites, with their architecture of participation, encourage users to add value to the applications they use. This differs from traditional Web sites, which are solely for information retrieval and modifiable only by their owners.
