Cisco has embraced an API-First strategy to drive innovation, collaboration, and efficiency within its extensive product ecosystem. Join us in this compelling talk as we explore the unique challenges organizations face in maintaining high-quality APIs at scale and discover effective strategies to implement a comprehensive organization-wide API Quality program.

To overcome these challenges, organizations must adopt an automation and data-driven approach that provides actionable insights into API quality. We have developed powerful tooling that automatically analyzes and scores OpenAPI docs against API guidelines, detects backward compatibility breaking changes, and publishes a centralized API Quality dashboard.

Drawing upon our experience, we will share our journey in developing and open-sourcing "API Insights." This invaluable tool empowers organizations to monitor, analyze, and improve API quality based on our accumulated knowledge and expertise.

This session will provide practical strategies and actionable takeaways to accelerate API quality initiatives in your organization. Leveraging API Insights’ VS Code extension, dashboard, and integration with your CI/CD workflow, you can elevate your API development and maintenance practices to new heights, resulting in improved developer experiences, enhanced customer satisfaction, and increased business success.
