Find out how the world’s leading brands are using Apigee to power the world’s leading APIs. Take advantage of this unique opportunity to start building professionalgrade APIs using Apigee Edge. This handson workshop will teach you how to easily expose existing backend assets as secure, scalable APIs that developers will actually want to use. You’ll get a chance to explore the next generation of app development and see how Apigee’s BackendasaService frees you from the bottlenecks of traditional IT operations. At the end of the workshop, you’ll see how builtin mobile and social capabilities combine with the power of Node.js to enable rapid development of modern apps.
In this workshop, you will:
- Build a high performance API out of an existing backend service using Apigee API Services
- Gain endtoend visibility across your APIs from the user all the way to your backend using Apigee Analytics Services
- Understand how to quickly onboard developers and monetize your APIs using Apigee Developer Services
This is the supporting material for a one-day hands-on workshop that introduces developers to Apigee Edge. We call it a "DevJam".
