As API ecosystems grow, organisations must navigate the differences between developer portals, API catalogs, and marketplaces to optimise API consumer adaptation. Each of these components plays a unique role in the developer experience, but their responsibilities often overlap and it is easy to get confused regarding their purpose.
This talk breaks down the core functions of developer portals, API catalogs and marketplaces, explores their impact on API consumers, and provides guidance on when to use each. Consequently, organisations can make well-informed decisions about the tools anticipated by their customers.
