We have the opportunity to attend the 'I love API' conference happening in San Jose this week on October 13th and 14th.

 

Take a peek at my thoughts here:

 
 
Or if you don't have a chance to look - read here:
  • APIs become more and more important - No surprise - APIs power more and more of the economy
  • Is is getting easier - or harder - One key area will be to see if it getting easier to build and consume APIs - not even by a developer, but potentially (a savvy) business users.
  • Do APIs scale? - It used to be that APIs could not do brute force interfaces - let's see how they scale up to the 21st century demands. And next to technical scalability, there is also business scalability with aspects like e.g. uptake, monetization, licensing and more.
  • IoT - No surrpise - the hottest next generation application use case features prominently at the conference. 
  • 3 Tracks - Developer, Technologist and Executive - will be interesting to see these three separate tracks. 
If you can make it to San Jose - make sure you step by and say Hello!
