APIs are known to unlock opportunities for businesses. They can help businesses innovate at a faster pace, create new revenue opportunities, automate back-end operations, and more.

According to Luis Weir, author of the book “Enterprise API Management,” more companies need to realize the business value of APIs by creating their own business-led API strategy. During an interview on the Coding over Cocktails podcast, Weir said that organizations finding and realizing their API strategies should be a number one priority and that they should use these technologies to understand the business problem that they’re trying to solve.
