Not that long ago, API calls were counted per hour. Evaluations for API management tools typically have long lists of criteria, but performance is usually left off. That might be fine in certain environments but not where IoT and mobile are concerned. For these environments the number of API calls has increased to the point that even the typical rate of 200 API calls per second is no longer enough.

This session explains why API call speed and scalability is essential for IoT environments and the role effective API management will play. It further informs delegates how to prepare API strategies for IoT and how to handle huge volumes of API calls – up to 23,000 per second.
