Growing demand for private and public APIs drives the global API management market

APIs are most commonly categorized into private APIs, accessible to a limited set of third parties, and public APIs, accessible publicly. Organizations are increasingly deploying public APIs to cater to customer requirements and provide round-the-clock support services. For instance, APIhound, an API search engine provider estimates the availability of over 50,000 public web APIs in 2016, and the number is growing rapidly. Moreover, the number of private APIs is also increasing as businesses are adopting private APIs for routing data and for internal communication. According to 3Scale, the number of inbound service enquiries has more than doubled at the end of 2015 and is expected to continue with the same trend. Furthermore, APIs provide the necessary platform that allows communication between various software programs. Businesses are increasingly becoming software oriented and consumer centric, Moreover, the dependency on connectivity through APIs is growing, further fueling the growth of both public and private APIs. Hence, to manage the increasing number of APIs, organizations are rapidly adopting API management solutions.
