APIs - everybody understands APIs! Or do they?

Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) are embedded in the common vernacular of our market data industry – but how much do we understand about them – and how much do we agree what they actually are. Enabling consumers, and more specifically consumer applications, to get access to data is the objective. The structure of that data matters and the commercial rules associated with it matter too. Technology considerations play into this in respect of programming languages and more to boot. The advent of Cloud has added to the excitement but also perhaps to the confusion. Who provides the API – is it the data provider, the system provider, or even the cloud provider – in truth it’s probably all three. This is a big topic and this webinar aims to shine a big educational light on this oft misunderstood topic.
