The value of APIs for business

https://www.mulesoft.com/resources/api/connected-business-strategy

As a growing number of consumers and businesses incorporate web and mobile apps into their daily routines, businesses are discovering valuable new uses for previously isolated data sources. APIs (application programming interfaces) are the tools that allow businesses to put that data to use — by inspiring innovative developers to create new business opportunities and improve existing products, systems, and operations.

An enterprise should develop an API strategy consisting of both public and private APIs. When an enterprise business releases public APIs that power consumer-facing applications, it enables new ways to engage and connect with its customers through web, mobile, and social apps. And by developing private APIs, businesses can offer their employees and partners new tools that help them streamline operations and serve customers even better. In this dynamic environment — as more and more businesses create and incorporate APIs — it’s increasingly critical for innovative businesses to develop and execute successful API strategies.

APIs Enable Businesses

Connect With Customers

An effective API can give existing and potential customers new reasons to interact with a business and connect with it on a personal level — and to share their experiences with others. As an example, take the hypothetical case of a national auto insurance provider. Over the years, as part of its normal business operations and planning, it has assembled and maintained comprehensive, detailed, and up-to-date data on the quality and condition of local roads all across the country. By making this previously internal data publicly accessible through an API, the company unleashes the creativity of developers and related businesses to devise new uses for the data. Developers create apps that recommend driving routes based in part on road quality. Civic groups develop apps that empower citizens to band together and petition local officials for better funding of transit infrastructure. The insurance company itself gives potential customers a way to get rate quotes — whenever they want, and from wherever they happen to be — through web and mobile apps. Simply exposing this previously isolated and hidden data through a public API has given the insurance company a powerful way to extend its reach to thousands of new customers — who now regularly connect with the company in a more personal, meaningful way. This API strategy has allowed the company the opportunity to improve customer engagement as well as creating new products and new channels that can be used in increasingly innovative ways.

Streamline Operations

The insurance company could also develop private APIs for use by its own employees — for example, to provide its sales team with information that can help them give accurate quotes more efficiently, even when they are on the road, through web and mobile apps. Another API could enable the company’s claims department to more easily access data that will help them process customer claims more quickly, more conveniently, and with fewer errors. These are just a few examples of how an internal API strategy can improve operational efficiency and customer service for businesses.

Challenges of Developing and Integrating APIs for Business

Over time, most businesses deploy an ever more complicated mix of technologies, computer systems, applications, and processes to solve their organizational challenges. These legacy systems become increasingly inefficient as they age, in part because they often are not interoperable with newer technologies. A business that depends on such legacy systems will usually encounter problems when attempting to add newer software and services, such as SaaS applications and modern APIs. Sometimes these problems can be addressed with point-to-point integrations among existing systems. In time, however, these custom point-to-point integrations create multiple, fragile, and complicated dependencies that cost businesses customers and resources — and are by nature prone to failure.

Another challenge for businesses in developing their API strategy is the lack of access to effective tools for designing, testing, and monitoring those APIs and a vibrant developer community that can provide feedback and insights into an API’s design and features. These are critical factors when a business is developing well-crafted, engaging APIs that will be widely adopted.

MuleSoft’s Anypoint Platform™ offers businesses easy-to-implement solutions for API integration and development. It’s one platform that businesses can use to design, build, secure, monitor, and manage APIs.

Simplified API Management, Design, and Development

Anypoint Platform makes it easy for businesses to incorporate seamless integration and interoperability throughout an enterprise. Anypoint Platform offers a number of valuable components — such as CloudHub and Mule as an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) — that make it easy to share information across applications, services, and systems — even legacy systems. These solutions provide connectivity that allows organizations to unlock their systems and data, so they can create powerful, cutting-edge APIs.

Anypoint™ Connectors enable instant API connectivity to some of the most popular business applications and services. With a library of pre-built business application integration solutions, organizations can rapidly connect and integrate CRM, accounting, billing, marketing, and other business applications and systems. Unlike other integration options, Anypoint Connectors are built and managed on MuleSoft’s enterprise integration platform, so businesses can deploy integrations rapidly, either onsite or in the cloud.

In addition, MuleSoft’s Anypoint Platform for APIs delivers the tools businesses need to design and build APIs that developers will want to use — and to ensure that those APIs perform and scale to meet enterprise requirements.

With tools to support businesses at every step in the development and implementation of APIs, Anypoint Platform for APIs allows you to:

Consult with app developers to design great APIs. Anypoint Platform for APIs facilitates close collaboration between API and app developers throughout the API lifecycle. And by leveraging RAML tooling, the API Platform offers an onramp for API developers to design RESTful APIs quickly, using expressive, intuitive language. As soon as an API developer designs an API, application developers can interact with it, test it, provide feedback, and document potential use cases — all in a single design environment. This close collaboration ensures that the API will inspire app developers, which in turn ensures widespread adoption

Take your API from concept to reality — fast. Getting your API up and running requires more than great design. By leveraging MuleSoft’s proven, trusted runtime, the API Platform allows you to rapidly build the API once it’s designed — and to ensure that it performs well, scales to support your growing community of app developers, and remains secure and protected against unauthorized access.

Take the guesswork out of API management and monitoring. The API Platform provides all of the tools you need to manage and monitor APIs and the application developers who use them. Create contracts with API consumers to control access, establish SLAs, or throttle calls to API endpoints. Choose from pre-packaged policy templates, or create your own to manage compliance, security, and quality of service. And dashboard analytics make it easy to monitor usage, compliance with SLAs, and overall API performance.

Drive engagement with your API. Anypoint Platform for APIs takes the guesswork out of engaging the developer community with your API. Create and publish interactive docs and code samples, so developers can get started with your API in minutes. Allow app developers to document use cases for the API as they’re discovered. And because they’re designed in RAML, your APIs will be concise and easy to understand.

These and other components of MuleSoft’s API and integration solutions make it easy for businesses to design, develop, implement, and monitor useful and engaging APIs — even when they need to be integrated with legacy systems. Anypoint Platform for APIs gives businesses a powerful way to leverage the useful data that’s already being stored in their internal systems, and use a holistic API strategy to improve customer engagement, streamline business operations, and bring new products and services to market. It gives businesses access to a creative developer community that can build new ways for customers to interact and engage with their brands. And it gives businesses streamlined tools so internal departments can improve operations and work more efficiently.

Jenis Perencanaan Dalam Organisasi

https://simanjuntakamanda.wordpress.com/2014/10/19/manfaat-perencanaan-dan-jenis-perencanaan-dalam-organisasi-tugas-sofskill-minggu-ke-3/

Melihat tingkat hirarkis, ada tiga jenis perencanaan: perencanaan strategis, taktis dan operasional.

1. Perencanaan Strategis

Perencanaan strategis dianggap oleh organisasi secara keseluruhan dan dihasilkan oleh tingkat hirarki yang lebih tinggi dari sebuah organisasi. Berkaitan dengan tujuan jangka panjang dan strategi dan tindakan untuk mencapainya.

Perencanaan ini merupakan proses dimana eksekutif / top manajer meramal arah jangka panjang dari suatu entitas dengan menetapkan target spesifik pada kinerja, dengan mempertimbangkan kondisi internal dan eksternal untuk melakukan tindakan perencanaan yang dipilih.

Hal ini biasanya dilakukan dalam organisasi pada tingkat manajerial, atau tingkat tertinggi perintah, yang dilakukan dengan cara taktik dan prosedur yang digunakan untuk mencapai tujuan tertentu atau diberikan perencanaan jangka panjang lebih dari 5 tahun.

Perencanaan strategis juga merupakan suatu hal untuk merencanakan strategi dalam segala hal, atau dalam kehidupan sehari-hari setiap orang.

2. Perencanaan Taktis / Taktik

Pada tingkat kedua dari perencanaan, taktis, kinerja berada dalam setiap area fungsional bisnis, termasuk sumber daya tertentu. Perkembangannya terjadi oleh tingkat organisasi menengah, bertujuan untuk efisiensi penggunaan sumber daya yang tersedia untuk jangka menengah proyeksi. Dalam perusahaan besar dengan mudah mengidentifikasi tingkat perencanaan, yang diberikan oleh setiap kepala bagian.

Bagian taktis merupakan proses yang berkelanjutan, yang bertujuan dalam waktu dekat, merampingkan pengambilan keputusan dan menentukan tindakan. Bagian Ini dilakukan secara sistemik karena merupakan totalitas yang dibentuk oleh sistem dan subsistem, seperti yang terlihat dari sudut pandang sistemik. Apakah iteratif, dan proyek mana yang harus fleksibel dan menerima penyesuaian dan koreksi. Teknik ini memungkinkan pengukuran siklus dan evaluasi sebagai dijalankan yang secara dinamis dan interaktif dilakukan dengan orang lain, dan merupakan teknik yang mengkoordinasikan berbagai kegiatan untuk mencapai tujuan yang diinginkan dari efisiensi.

3. Perencanaan Operasional

Ketidakpastian yang disebabkan oleh tekanan dan pengaruh lingkungan harus berasimilasi pada pertengahan atau taktik yang harus mengkonversi dan menafsirkan keputusan strategis, tingkat tertinggi, ke dalam rencana konkrit di tengah dan membuat rencana yang akan dilakukan dan, pada gilirannya, dibagi lagi menjadi rencana operasional dan rincian yang akan dijalankan pada tingkat operasional.

Karena jadwal pada tingkat operasional sesuai dengan set bagian homogen dari perencanaan taktis, yaitu, mengidentifikasi prosedur spesifik dan proses yang diperlukan di tingkat bawah organisasi, menyajikan rencana aksi atau rencana operasional. Hal ini dihasilkan oleh tingkat organisasi yang lebih rendah, dengan fokus pada kegiatan rutin perusahaan, oleh karena itu, rencana dikembangkan untuk waktu yang singkat.

Perencanaan Operasional ini dilakukan pada karyawan di tingkat terendah dari organisasi. Membuat perencanaan kecil sebuah organisasi dan merinci bagaimana tujuan akan dicapai. Bahkan, semua titik dasar perencanaan terjadi di tingkat operasional, yang sangat mempengaruhi dan menentukan, bersama dengan, hasil taktik.

Termasuk tugas-tugas operasional dan skema operasi yang benar dan efisien dalam menjalani sistem pendekatan reduksionis proses khas ditutup. Hal ini dilakukan berdasarkan proses diprogram dan teknik komputasi. Ini mengubah ide menjadi kenyataan, atau mengeksekusi tujuan dari suatu tindakan melalui berbagai rute, jangka pendek pekerjaan umumnya kurang dari 1 tahun.

4. Perencanaan Normatif

Mengacu pada penciptaan standar, kebijakan serta peraturan yang ditetapkan untuk operasi organisasi. Hal ini bergantung pada pembentukan standar, metodologi dan metode untuk berfungsinya kegiatan yang direncanakan.

Standar-standar tentang pendirian aturan dan / atau undang-undang dan / atau kebijakan dalam setiap kelompok atau organisasi, terutama untuk menjaga pengendalian, pemantauan dan pengembangan perencanaan dan pengembangan standar dan kebijakan. Perencanaan berhubungan erat dengan desain struktur organisasi. Ini berlaku di daerah yang sangat spesifik, yang umumnya adalah mereka yang mengawasi dan menentukan aspek pada tingkat lainnya tidak dapat dipisahkan

Code refactoring

Code refactoring is the process of restructuring existing computer code—changing the factoring—without changing its external behavior. Refactoring improves nonfunctional attributes of the software.

Code refactoring is the process of restructuring existing computer code—changing the factoring—without changing its external behavior. Refactoring improves nonfunctional attributes of the software. Advantages include improved code readability and reduced complexity; these can improve source-code maintainability and create a more expressive internal architecture or object model to improve extensibility. Typically, refactoring applies a series of standardised basic micro-refactorings, each of which is (usually) a tiny change in a computer program's source code that either preserves the behaviour of the software, or at least does not modify its conformance to functional requirements. Many development environments provide automated support for performing the mechanical aspects of these basic refactorings. If done extremely well, code refactoring may also resolve hidden, dormant, or undiscovered bugs or vulnerabilities in the system by simplifying the underlying logic and eliminating unnecessary levels of complexity. If done poorly it may fail the requirement that external functionality not be changed, introduce new bugs, or both.

Ad Hoc

Ad hoc 

Ad hoc is an adjective used to describe things that are created on the spot, usually for a single use.

A Latin term that translates literally as “for this,” ad hoc implies innovation, creativity and spontaneity. The term is widely applied in information technology (IT) and business contexts.

Here are a few examples:

An ad hoc network is a local area network (LAN) that is built spontaneously as devices connect.

Ad hoc testing is an informal and improvisational approach to assessing the viability of a product.

Ad hoc analysis is a business intelligence process designed to answer a single, specific business question.

Adhocracy is a corporate culture model that emphasizes the ability to adapt swiftly to changing conditions.

http://whatis.techtarget.com/definition/ad-hoc

Ad hoc is a Latin phrase meaning "for this". In English, it generally signifies a solution designed for a specific problem or task, non-generalizable, and not intended to be able to be adapted to other purposes (compare with a priori).

Common examples are ad hoc organizations, committees, and commissions created at the national or international level for a specific task. In other fields, the term could refer, for example, to a military unit created under special circumstances, a tailor-made suit, a handcrafted network protocol (e.g. ad hoc network), a temporary banding together of geographically-linked franchise locations (of a given national brand) to issue advertising coupons, or a purpose-specific equation.

Ad hoc can also mean makeshift solutions, shifting contexts to create new meanings, inadequate planning, or improvised events.[1]

example: The term ad hoc networking typically refers to a system of network elements that combine to form a network requiring little or no planning.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_hoc

Ad hoc literally means "for this" in Latin, and in English this almost always means "for this specific purpose". Issues that come up in the course of a project often require immediate, ad hoc solutions. An ad hoc investigating committee is authorized to look into a matter of limited scope. An ad hoc ruling by an athletic council is intended to settle a particular case, and is not meant to serve as a model for later rulings. If an organization deals with too many things on an ad hoc basis, it may mean someone hasn't been doing enough planning.

Definition of ad hoc: for the particular end or case at hand without consideration of wider application The decisions were made ad hoc.

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/ad%20hoc

ad hoc adjective [ before noun ] 

made or happening only for a particular purpose or need, not planned before it happens
