Follow CSX’s journey as they implement API standards and best practices with Axway’s Amplify Platform to enhance their API strategy.
In a recent webinar with Axway, software architects from CSX — one of the nation’s leading transportation suppliers — discuss how the company uses an API strategy to drive business growth. Here, Robert Dean, Principal Software Architect at CSX discusses why it’s been so important to establish a set of API best practices to drive consistency.
There are a lot of cases where you can design an API six different ways, and at least four of them are technically correct. So at some point, you have to make decisions and then put those into the standards so that everybody's following the beat of the same drummer—keeping to that one team principle.
