Why not use existing APIs for agentic use cases?
In this workshop we will…
Design…backend APIs to expose critical data from business systems
Secure and govern…by adding traffic management, policies, and security
Publish…by providing a limited-use front-end API
Productize…by discovering the API through a dedicated catalog
Agentify…by turning the API into a tool for large language models
Let’s see this in action…
Thank You

Notes de l'éditeur

  • #4 APIs have been at the forefront of every major technological breakthrough over the past 15 years, serving as the hidden but critical bridges that connect data and applications across your digital landscape. Today, we find ourselves in a transformative moment, the agentic AI era, also the steepest where the role of APIs has evolved from a core digital asset to the core business success with AI From delivering ideas with GenAI to delivering outcomes with agents that can interact with the world As organizations strive to harness the power of AI, the importance of APIs in facilitating enabling seamless interactions among large language models (LLMs), AI agents, and more has never been greater.
  • #6 [SEE APPENDIX FOR ALTERNATIVE VIEWS] However, the modern enterprise has more complexity than ever, preventing organizations from transforming APIs into engines of growth. Today’s average digital landscape contains over 600 APIs, not including undiscovered shadow or zombie APIs And as the AI economy rapidly expands, hundreds of APIs turn into thousands. (Optional talk-track addition) A recent API Security Report by Salt found that the count of APIs is increasing, having gone up by 167% in the past year (Optional talk-track addition) Additionally, IDC research shows that organizations with GenAI apps or services in production have 5x more APIs than those that have not yet implemented. (an 400% increase in # of APIs) More APIs means more threats - are you opening up more security gaps, spending more to handle this? Outdated “Zombie” APIs, the undead threat lurking in the dark corners, remain the top security concern. These are APIs that are no longer maintained or updated, and lack essential security, making them easy targets for malicious actors to gain unauthorized access to sensitive data.. Leaving organizations vulnerable to attacks. (Optional talk-track addition) Additionally, an IDC study found that only 50% of companies have a process to identify zombie APIs, but we believe this number is dramatically lower based on customer conversations And 57% struggle with fragmentation, inefficiency, and lack of visibility due to multiple API gateways and solutions (Takeaway) With thousands of agents on the horizon, API sprawl turns into API explosion, leading to chaos across your digital landscape.
