Cloud API And Management Platforms And Middleware Market Predicted to Witness Surge in the Near Future 2016 - 2026

Enterprises are gradually shifting towards making use of REST (Representational State Transfer) framework for cloud API as compared to SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) due to ease of usage as it is simpler to interact with as it supports multiple data formats and makes efficient use of bandwidth due to less verbosity in comparison to SOAP. The Cloud API and management platforms and middleware market vendors can be categorized into: pure-plays, PaaS and Integration Specialists, System Integrators and Platforms for API’s, governance and SOA. Over the past few years it has been observed that a number of standalone API vendors (pure-plays) have been acquired by large scale enterprises in order to capitalize on the opportunity in cloud API and management platforms and middleware market in the long run.

A cloud API platform vendor offer the following components as a part cloud API management solution:

API developer portal: Developers can explore APIs, register for access and obtain keys. It also contains documentation, policies and rules on usage of the cloud APIs.

These applications comprise of small, independent processes that communicate via API, thereby creating demand for cloud API and management platforms. Emergence of Internet of Things also has a pivotal role to play in the growth of cloud API market as more number of connected devices requires more analysis and monitoring at a fast rate that can be done through cloud APIs. In addition to this several start-ups and small scale enterprises are adopting assemble from components methodology that enables end users to use APIs to connect apps to IT assets, resulting in growth in usage of cloud APIs.
