Financial services has seen more disruptive technologies introduced over the past three years than any other industry. But in today’s climate, customers now rely on digital banking experiences to make critical financial decisions. Now more than ever, banks must provide these critical and useful services for customers, and they are turning to Open Banking to do so.

Read this whitepaper to learn:

• Three strategic mindsets that drive digital transformation in banking.
• A four-step guide to building an Open Banking digital platform strategy with APIs.
• How one global top tier bank developed a digital platform to transcend disjointed customer experiences.

Launched in 2015, SAP S/4HANA represents a major step forward in enterprise resource planning (ERP) software. However, with this change, SAP is ending support for SAP ERP in 2025, requiring existing customers to upgrade to SAP S/4HANA. Numerous organizations rely on SAP platform solutions, many of which were implemented during the late 1990s and early 2000s.

By 2040, SAP will end mainstream maintenance on all instances of ERP installations forcing enterprises to migrate to SAP S/4HANA, or re-implement complex SAP ERP installations, which can come with many challenges. Businesses are now considering various options as they migrate to SAP S/4HANA.

Read this whitepaper, written in collaboration with Capgemini, to learn:

• How to prove the business value of a migration to SAP S/4HANA
• Why an API-led architecture is the best approach for SAP S/4HANA integration with existing systems, providing agility and shielding an organization’s technology stack from future changes to other systems
• The main principles of a Center for Enablement (C4E) and how it enables enterprises to implement software design with governance and high delivery speeds Below is a sneak peek from the whitepaper.

Across industries, more and more companies are moving to the cloud. According to one study, approximately 93% of businesses are using cloud technologies in order to increase operational efficiency, reduce costs, and improve agility. Today, integration is a strategic component of every digital transformation and initiative that involves moving to the cloud.

Read this whitepaper to learn about:

• The top integration use cases for moving to the cloud––from integrating SaaS applications with on-premise data to migrating existing data to the cloud.
• Why traditional approaches to the above use cases do not suffice, and the role APIs can play in the process.
• The success story of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and how they used APIs in their “move to the cloud” initiatives.

With constituent demands driving the need for urgent government support, agencies are feeling the pressure to digitally transform faster than ever. Yet agencies dealing with decades-old infrastructure often run into challenges unlocking the data and processing needs to power these solutions.

Massive IT modernization projects take time — so how can agencies provide these solutions now? To do this, IT teams must break the common misconceptions of modernization that are negatively impacting innovation.

Check out this guide, produced in partnership with GovLoop, to learn:

• Keys to challenging modernization assumptions from innovative agency CIOs.
• Tips on balancing short-term digital needs with long-term modernization.
• How APIs can securely speed up your agency’s digital transformation efforts.

Today, government IT teams are expected to deliver more services with fewer resources. Consequently, many agencies have prioritized legacy modernization, interoperability, and shared service models as a means towards increasing IT delivery capacity. We propose that successful execution of these initiatives within the confines of a strictly managed budget requires a new approach to integration, one centered around APIs.

Our recommended approach, API-led connectivity, builds on the principles of reuse first outlined by SOA, while avoiding many of the pitfalls that limited the success of heavyweight SOA implementations.

In this whitepaper, you will learn:

• What forces drive digital transformation in federal government, and what role integration plays in supporting digital transformation
• How a civilian federal agency leveraged APIs to modernize legacy systems and accelerate the speed of integration
• How to build out an API-led architecture within a government agency to accelerate project delivery through promotion of reuse
