Earlier today, Eric Roch posted on Perficient’s Digital Transformation blog, Digital Transformation without APIs and Data Costing Millions based on A recent UK study sponsored by Apigee stating that digital transformation should include mobile apps, APIs and data analytics.
“Developing apps alone is unlikely to be enough to fully grasp the potential of digital businesses, with effective digital transformation coming from a combination of apps, API’s and analytics.
