API Marketplace 101 - Beyond the API Developer Portal

One question that our customers frequently ask us is, “How can I generate revenue from my APIs?” With the increasing demand for digital transformation, exposing services as APIs has become a key business need. As an API provider, you need an easy and flexible way to monetize your business APIs so that you can generate revenue for the use of your APIs.
Moreover, subscribers can also choose the best possible subscription plan with the optimal billing plan. Hence, enabling monetization for APIs will be beneficial for both API providers and subscribers.
You can use the new monetization features in WSO2 API Manager to create different monetization plans that can be used to charge developers and subscribers for the use of your APIs.
Join our webinar as we discuss in detail the following:
* The importance of API monetization
* Benefits of monetizing your APIs and maximizing profit generation by exposing APIs
* Collection and summarizing statistical data related to API usage
* Using a payment platform for invoicing and collecting payments
* Creating multiple revenue streams by exposing services as APIs

Mine Your APIs for Gold: API Monetization

The cloud is rapidly becoming the de-facto standard for deploying enterprise applications. Microservices are at the core of building cloud-native applications due to its proven advantages such as granularity, cloud-native deployment, and scalability. With the exponential growth of the consumer base of these service offerings, enforcing microservice/API security has become one of the biggest challenges to overcome.
In this webinar, we will discuss:
* The need for API/Microservices Security
* The importance of delegating security enforcement to an API Gateway
* API Authentication and Authorization methodologies
* OAuth2 - The de-facto standard of API Authentication
* Protection against cyber attacks and anomalies
* Security aspects to consider when designing Single Page Applications (SPAs)

API Security in a Cloud Native Era

GraphQL is an emerging API standard that provides a more flexible and alternative approach for data intensive operations. It is particularly good for querying and retrieving data in optimized forms that make applications more efficient and optimal. While GraphQL focuses on what it does best, we still need to ensure that our GraphQL services are exposed in a secure, controlled, monitored, and sometimes even in a monetized environment. This is where the inclusion of an API gateway that understands GraphQL queries, mutations, and subscriptions can add significant value.
Join our webinar to learn more about the following:
* Introduction to GraphQL
* Exposing GraphQL services as managed APIs
    * Authentication
    * Authorization
    * Rate limiting
* Invoking GraphQL APIs exposed via WSO2 API Manager

Exposing GraphQLs as Managed APIs

Microservices, containers, and Kubernetes have made it very easy and convenient for anyone to deploy APIs as they please. While the exponential growth and popularity of APIs are doing wonders to the industry, the true value of APIs is often underutilized without a focused API product manager. APIs are created to address a particular technical need and it's the API product manager that utilizes it for strategic initiatives of the organization.
We will discuss the role of an API product manager and the benefits this role brings to an organization in this webinar. Discussion topics include:
* APIs and their audiences
* Utilizing APIs better by creating API products
* Governing the lifecycle and usage of APIs
* How API products makes life easy for API consumers

API Products: The Role of an API Product Manager

API Management is one of the most heavily discussed topics in the enterprise integration industry. As the industry progresses to deploying more microservices, adopting serverless, and embracing containers and container orchestration platforms, the need to have APIs and API management systems are increasing.
This webinar will explore the importance of APIs and API management in modern and legacy enterprise architectures. We will discuss the why’s and how’s of:
* Creating, deploying, and managing APIs
* Versioning, documenting, and consuming APIs
* Securing, controlling, and monitoring APIs
* Engaging CI/CD and rolling out APIs into production
We will use the latest release - WSO2 API Manager 3.0 - to demonstrate the fundamentals that will be discussed in the webinar.

Banks are standing face to face with the PSD2 go-live deadline, however, they are still not ready to roll out their interfaces with Strong Customer Authentication (SCA). For this reason, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) agreed to give an extra 18 months for the roll-out of SCA.
SCA ensures that the consumption of financial APIs by the third party is done with the explicit consent of the customer and with multiple levels of assurance in the authentication, to ensure customer authenticity. WSO2 Open Banking allows compliance of SCA and provides extendability, allowing configuration of custom authentication methods such as SMS one-time password, out-of-band authentication, etc.
This webinar will discuss in detail:
* An introduction to PSD2 AIS, PIS Flows
* The basics of SCA
* Configuration of Multi-Factor Authentication with WSO2 Open Banking

WSO2 Open Banking: Support for Global Open API Standards

We have critically evaluated how AI will shape integration use cases, their feasibility, and timelines. Emerging Technology Analysis Canvas (ETAC), a framework built to analyze emerging technologies, is the methodology of our study.

We observe that AI can significantly impact integration use cases and identify 13 AI-based use case classes for integration. Points to note include:

Enabling AI in an enterprise involves collecting, cleaning up, and creating a single representation of data as well as enforcing decisions and exposing data outside, each of which leads to many integration use cases. Hence, AI indirectly creates demand for integration.
AI needs data, which in some cases lead to significant competitive advantages. The need to collect data would drive vendors to offer most AI products in the cloud through APIs.
Due to lack of expertise and data, custom AI model building will be limited to large organizations. It is hard for small and medium size organization to build and maintain custom models.
Join our webinar as we discuss how challenges posed by AI, such as lack of expertise, bias, and attacks would affect these use case classes.

How Would AI Shape Future Integrations?

We have critically evaluated blockchain-based integration use cases, their feasibility, and timelines. Emerging Technology Analysis Canvas (ETAC), a framework built to analyze emerging technologies, is the methodology of our study. Based on our analysis, we observe that blockchain can significantly impact integration use cases.
In our paper, we identify 30-plus blockchain-based use cases for integration and four architecture patterns. Notably, each use case we identified can be implemented using one of the architecture patterns. Furthermore, we also discuss challenges and risks posed by blockchains that would affect these architecture patterns.
Join our webinar as we explore the four architecture patterns and their feasibility in detail.
