open-source, ready-to-use digital commerce APIs and a purpose-built
developer portal to help retailers or any other company quickly
build a modern digital commerce program. Apigee Commerce APIx adds
another key offering to Apigee’s APIx family, a suite of
industry-specific business APIs.
“There’s increasing pressure today for companies to
quickly adapt to demand for digital experiences -- or risk becoming
irrelevant. Our Commerce APIx solution provides a head start for
companies looking to expand, build or accelerate their e-commerce
initiatives,” stated Anurag Wadehra, Apigee CMO and vice president,
solutions.
“In every industry, there are APIs that are proving
to have real business impact – and Apigee Commerce APIx delivers
the core set of APIs that we believe can help companies quickly
build modern, cross-channel commerce applications,” continued
Wadehra.
Many retailers are focusing on leveraging APIs to
offer customers instant, personalized engagement through multiple
online and physical channels. Today, four of the top five
largest retailers in the world1 leverage Apigee to help them
manage, secure and scale their API programs.
Kristopher Kleva, technical lead for e-commerce at
outdoor and clothing retailer L.L. Bean, noted, “The escalating
competition in e-commerce means we all must adapt - fast. We
are focusing on our core commerce APIs to deliver rich digital
experiences that our customers expect and demand. We started over
one hundred years ago as a mail-order and retail pioneer, and now
we’re proud to be seen as a digital pioneer – and Apigee is helping
us do this.”
