API Security as a Digital Initiative Enabler

This webinar provides an implementation guideline to set up and build visualizations with Splunk to capture service metrics.

Just a few years ago, doctors simply didn't use computers to improve their lives - and their patients care. Today, tablets and computers are pervasive. This webinar takes a look at what has changed, and how securing the digital record is a key element of modern healthcare and data usage.

If we take a traditional enterprise integration project that might require, say, six months, a dozen people, and two million dollars to build and deploy, and reduce those figures to two weeks, three people, and fifty thousand dollars – and end up with a faster, higher quality, more flexible approach – who gains? Many constituents of the ecosystem, but in terms of the ease and the success of the implementation: the system integrator wins! Let's explore the fundamental characteristics of the underlying declarative API integration technology that empowers the system integrators – to not just execute on their integration projects with speed and agility, but also possess a lens that enables looking at the integration requirements as executable business requirements.

Today’s business environments demand speed and agility, the fundamental drivers for the Microservices paradigm. A low-code approach to designing and implementing Microservices can dramatically cut on the time, cost and risks involved in the iterative software development process thereby taking the speed and agility provided by Microservices - a notch up. The low-code approach for the whole solution – APIs plus Logic (business logic, integration logic) – is automation for the most part, and flexibility for the rest: for custom business requirements for data and application integration. Call it disruptive, or innovative- this approach can change the way businesses and developers are used to looking at software services.

Digital Transformation starts with the need for modernization of legacy systems and/or integration of the existing systems with the modern cloud. APIs form the first logical step in undertaking that journey. The underlying implementation: business logic, integration with the vast variety of data sources - both new and legacy, follows as the next important undertaking – and that defined the role of Microservices. In this session we'll dive deeper into how APIs and Microservices can help define a modern, digital enterprise.

Part 2 of a series. Is it true that an API implementation can be declarative? Is it real that this declarative implementation looks like executable business requirements? Come, find for yourself – in this session on Live API Creator’s Declarative Rules which are spreadsheet-like expressions that react to changes in referenced data to enforce business policy. The simplicity of declaring these expressions for data integrity and data integration, underlies the speed and agility rendered by Live API Creator in any API definition/implementation process. Touch and feel Live API Creator’s declarative rules via plenty of practical examples and use cases implemented in this session.

Focused on how organizations can use APIs and microservices to modernize their architecture and accelerate digital transformation

One of the significant issues in the API lifecycle is the lack of visibility to help answer the five Ws. Today, most users have some visibility into a few of the Ws, but when it comes to answering them all, you either have to gather information from many different systems and correlate it, or you have blind spots. In this session we will show you how a unified solution from CA Technologies (Runscope + APIM + APM) provides the critical information needed to answer “What is happening with my APIs”, “When is it happening”, “Who is being impacted”, “Why is it happening” and “Where is the problem”.

Digital technology dramatically improves the economics and capabilities of every business, but only if you master the rules and systems that govern digital experiences, digital operations, digital ecosystems, and digital innovation. When business leaders see technology as a business asset that’s central to their success, they are in a position to transform. The benefits are immense – those who succeed find it 10 times cheaper and faster to engage customers, create offerings, harness partners, and operate their businesses.

Our featured guest for this original webcast is Forrester Research Vice President and Principal Analyst Ted Schadler, who will connect the dots between business and technology, and introduce the elements of modern application architecture that all business leaders should know about – the cloud, APIs, microservices, analytics, IoT, and automation. Business leaders will learn how to:

· Master digital’s new rules of business
· Embrace the role that technology plays in business success
· Invest in modern application architecture to accelerate business development
· Work better with IT to bring your digital initiatives to market faster

All registrants will also benefit from a complimentary copy of Forrester’s Digital Rewrites the Rules of Business report.

Applications these days are not self-contained. They are dynamically reading and writing content leveraging hundreds of internal and 3rd party application program interfaces (APIs). This allows applications of all kinds like Mobile, Web, or Wearable apps to provide a vibrant experience. However, if just one of the APIs the application leverage isn’t available, is slow to respond, or is returning the incorrect data, the outcome can be a frowny-faced user who can have a dramatic impact on the business. In this session, we will walk you through the fundamentals of API monitoring and how Runscope can help you to improve API uptime, performance, and data integrity.

When your APIs enforce integrity / security / integration logic, they become your “application backend”. When you add automated UIs, they become solutions. And when you create them with declarative rules rather than low level code, they become solutions that deliver strategic business value, a competitive edge in Digital Transformation. We’ll show how, by creating a working system in 20 minutes… instead of weeks.

We will also cover the new and shiny in the latest release of the underlying technology, CA Live API Creator v 5.0 – innovation in team development, simplified DevOps, an eXtensible data source framework, and connectivity to mongoDB.

Whether driven by PSD2 compliance, market demand for mobile apps, or fintech competition, open banking is becoming a top priority for financial businesses. Through exclusive research and customer successes, we determined that building a modern application architecture with APIs, microservices and strong authentication is a key success factor in this space. In fact, our latest report shows that fully digital banks enjoy an estimated 25% cost-to-income ratio, versus 60% for traditional institutions.

For this webcast, we assembled a panel that includes Mehdi Medjaoui, author of Banking APIs: State of the Market, along with experts in API and security capabilities, to introduce the elements of modern application architecture that all digital banking business leaders should know about – API management, microservices, strong authentication and risk-based security. You’ll learn about:

* The current state of open banking, and what your peers are doing

* How to invest in modern application architecture to improve your open banking projects

* How to align better with IT to accelerate your time-to-market

All registrants will also benefit from a complimentary copy of our Banking APIs: State of the Market report.

If you deal with data- be it for writing business applications, or for enabling an enterprise solution, or making business decisions – you will find value in discovering what CA Live API Creator has to offer. CA Live API Creator brings speed and simplicity into tasks and processes requiring federating data across data sources (SQL, NoSQL, Cloud Services) and applications. In this session, we will create a full system requiring integration of data across databases and applications – with messaging enabled microservices – created with low code and an intuitive UI – in less than 20 minutes.

If you’re migrating to a microservice architecture, it’s extremely important to make sure you don’t open up new security vulnerabilities as a result. At the same time, you have to make sure the access control approach you take doesn’t become a bottleneck for your developers or for the scalability of your system.

Join this webinar to learn:

- The state of the industry when it comes to API access control for microservices
- The DHARMA model for defining API security in a microservice architecture
- A specific DHARMA implementation using the new CA Microgateway
