API Driven Development

Why APIs ?
● APIs are a key enabler of digital enterprise
● APIs acts as gateways to enterprise digital asserts
● Allows the enterprise to build new digital consumer experiences within
accelerated time frame
● They open up new revenue channels and expand existing revenue
channels
● APIs enable the enterprise to cater for future expansions

Types of digital assets in enterprises
● Application silos that hold key business capabilities of the enterprise
● Enterprise SaaS applications
● Enterprise Data stored in various storage mechanisms including RDBMS,
Files, Spreadsheets, CSV files ...
● Applications that execute the process flows in the enterprise
● Systems based on proprietary protocols and data formats

Key integration capabilities
● API and Service Hosting
● Orchestration of services and apis
● Routing
● Transformations
● Protocol switching and ability to process different data formats
● Parallel processing

Integration Strategy
• Discover the ecosystems and Application silos
• Understand the data
• Understand the capabilities
• Identify the possible integration points for each system
• API enable the identified systems
• Implement the integration logic

Micro Integrator
• Can be to used to create composite services using atomic services
• Separate distribution that can be used in a cloud native environment
• Users can use the same EI tooling to create artifacts
• Deploy few composite integration services per micro integration
• Command line tool for management tasks
• Fast startup time (5s)
• Small distribution size of 150 mb
• K8S Integration

Integration with Files-based Systems
● WSO2 Enterprise Integrator supports a wide range of file transferring
protocols such as FTP, SFTP, FTPS, and SMB
○ Listen to a location, pick files, and invoke a web API using the content of the
files

Extension Points
• Script mediator
• Connectors
• Custom/Class mediators
• API handlers
• Custom tasks
• Custom inbound endpoints
• Custom XPath functions
• Message builders and formatters
• Transport listeners and senders
• Custom message
stores/processors
