In our latest podcast episode, we spoke with Keith Casey, Head of Go-to-Market and Product Strategy at Ngrok and Principal at CaseySoftware LLC. As an experienced API expert with more than twenty years of experience, Casey's on a mission now to help others create and consume amazing APIs. What sparked my interest in having Casey on the show was his recent blog post on API adoption and the pitfalls that come with it.

Casey explains how in the ideal world, users find an API, integrate it, and launch it (easy, right?). But often, API usage really follows a counter-intuitive pattern. This pattern follows three stages that Casey outlines as exploration, integration, and adoption in his piece API Adoption: The Dangerous Delay.

- Just a note, folks- this episode marks our final episode of API Intersection. In late 2023, Stoplight was involved in a merger with SmartBear, and as our teams focus on bringing Stoplight and Swaggerhub together, it requires our full attention. We've decided to place the show on hold indefinitely. We've enjoyed getting to connect to so many of you in the community and hoep to continue to do so through other means for the time being. Thank you for all of the listening, learning, and conversation. - This week on API Intersection , we sat down with Bryan Thomas and Puneet Kumar , who joined us from Humana. Both play heavily involved roles in the Enterprise API program there, and brought their unique perspectives to share. With an organization as large as Humana, we talked about how you build and maintain APIs at scale. What does consistency mean? How do you think of your APIs as a product, and why does that work ? Most importantly, when you go to make changes in your program, how do you get people on all levels on board?

As APIs become more ubiquitous, they are increasingly targeted by hackers, so getting your API security right is a necessity. This week on API Intersection , we thought, what better way to celebrate Security September than to bring on the API security expert himself, Dan Barahona? As Founder of APIsec University and Head of Growth at APIsec , Dan Barahona comes to the table with over 20 years of experience in cybersecurity. He created APISec University to raise awareness and educate about API risks and security, and many of their courses are open to the public. In fact, I just did an entire course on API Documentation Best Practices and how it relates to security, which I highly recommend you all check out. Anyways, we discussed how organizations face various challenges in managing and securing APIs, such as API sprawl and a need for more visibility about their APIs. Here are a few quick wins to get you on the right track to proper API security. Most importantly, ensure you have proactive API security practices and address security concerns early in the development process. _____ To subscribe to the podcast, visit https://stoplight.io/podcast --- API Intersection Podcast listeners are invited to sign up for Stoplight and save up to $650!

This week on API Intersection , we welcomed Varun Singh, Chief Product & Technology Officer of the Daily . Daily is a company that powers real-time audio and video for millions of people globally. Their user base consists of many developers who use their APIs and client SDKs to build audio and video features into applications. We delved into the significance of APIs in the video streaming industry and the crucial design considerations when integrating with such systems.

"Previously, video streaming was primarily focused on platforms like Netflix and YouTube. However, with the pandemic, real-time video communications have become more prevalent due to the surge in video calls, which means more and more APIs being created to support that," shares Varun.

This week on API Intersection podcast , we dive into the challenges of integrating with legacy systems, integrating a variety of third-party systems, building diverse APIs, and how to manage different levels of sophistication between African banks and mobile network providers. We interviewed Chris Turner , Senior Software Engineer and Agile Practitioner at Segovia Technology, a Crown Agents Bank. Crown Agents Bank uses computer systems and APIs to move money between countries, particularly in Africa. With his current role, Chris emphasizes that he could very well be working with one organization or agency with a modernized, high-technology stack that needs to integrate with an organization whose main form of technology is an array of spreadsheets. There is a level of complexity and nuances involved in working with APIs across different domains and industries, particularly in the context of Crown Agents Bank's mission to facilitate cross-border money transfers. With such a stark variety of diverse integration partners and the complexity of their APIs, building a standardized API program is all the more critical.

This week on the API Intersection podcast, we spoke with Eric Yu, a co-founder of Rutter API, a universal API aggregator for various types of business software tasked with standardizing all APIs into a unified format. They focus on two primary buckets: Ecommerce ecosystems apps, and fintech customers. Rutter lets customers connect their accounting, commerce, payment, and subscription platforms in a single flow. A universal API aggregator is a great solution to scale quickly, and we covered the benefits of utilizing one in our previous podcast episode. Increased security options, ease of integration, and the ability to scale quickly are just a few of the benefits of utilizing an aggregator. However, on the side of the aggregator, there are still quite a few challenges that aggregators face in today's API industry. _____ To subscribe to the podcast, visit https://stoplight.io/podcast --- API Intersection Podcast listeners are invited to sign up for Stoplight and save up to $650!

This week on the API Intersection podcast, we spoke with Gil Feig, Co-Founder of Merge, a company focused on building unified APIs that users can embed into their products and offer integrations to their customers. Merge offers one API to integrate with all HR, payroll, directory, recruiting, accounting, ticketing, and CRM platforms. During his enterprise engineering days, Gil noticed a constant need for companies to integrate their software with other platforms via APIs, so he sought to solve that problem via a concept called unified APIs. We spoke with Gil to understand the significant benefits of a unified API approach and some of the downsides to help educate the community on if this approach is the right fit for your own API strategy. _____ To subscribe to the podcast, visit https://stoplight.io/podcast --- API Intersection Podcast listeners are invited to sign up for Stoplight and save up to $650!

Flavor & Familiarity: the 2 Sides of Style Guides & Company-Wide Process feat. Wesley Beary of Salesforce 43:31

This week on the API Intersection podcast, we spoke with Wesley Beary–Architect of Engineering Practices and Culture, previously at Salesforce Technology. We originally reached out to Wesley after writing about the history of API Style Guides, as he played a key role in publishing one of the first open-sourced API standards. However, that was many years ago, and Wesley has continued to grow into a broader role at Salesforce after Heroku was acquired. Focused on people, innovation, and learning, Wesley has been a part of Salesforce for over a decade now (including his time at Heroku). Using his technical background and focusing on API governance evidently led him to the organizational side of things. With hundreds of architects and thousands of developers, things can get muddled quickly without proper process, education and communication. And that's where Wesley comes in. We’ve yet to have an episode where the lines of API governance blur with greater company standardization and company-wide process, it was definitely a unique insight into a very large scale way of doing things.
