A Focus Area Maturity Model for API Management
by Max Matthijssen, Michiel Overeem, Slinger Jansen | University Utrecht
Organizations are increasingly connecting using Application Programming Interfaces to share data, functionality, and even complete business processes. However, the creation and management of these so-called APIs, is non-trivial. Aspects such as the business model, usage throttling, documentation, are often rushed afterthoughts. In this research, we present and evaluate the API Management Focus Area Maturity Model, addressing the domains of Community Engagement, Security, Lifecycle, Monitoring, Performance, and Commercial. The API-m-FAMM is a model that organizations can use to evaluate how well they are doing at API management and to set out a course for systematic improvement and evolution. We have used the model in practice in several organizations, and report on these results as well.

Platforms often are technical foundation and distribution channel for complementary software products like mobile apps.
