So much discussion of APIs in the enterprise focuses on making them available to internal and external applications. This is great, of course, but businesses often also subscribe to third-party cloud services and consume their APIs based outside of the enterprise. This paper reviews the operational and security challenges inherent in subscribing to third-party cloud services and consuming their APIs. In many ways, consuming external APIs requires more rigorous management than APIs developed in-house. It also explores some proven ways to make the most of third-party cloud service APIs in business and technological terms.
