Company Recognized for Ability to Execute and
Completeness of Vision
CA Technologies (NASDAQ:CA) today announced that it has been
named a Leader in Gartner’s 2018 Magic Quadrant for Full Life
Cycle API Management* for the 6th consecutive time.** The report
evaluated CA Technologies for its ability to execute and
completeness of vision, which included evaluation of the company’s
CA API Management portfolio.
“Every successful business leverages an agile architecture built
on APIs and Microservices to build better apps faster,” said Rahim
Bhatia, general manager, Developer Products, CA Technologies. “We
believe this recognition from Gartner further validates the
strategy and strength of our market-leading solutions that
include the design, development, testing, security, management
and monitoring capabilities of APIs. Through our Full Lifecycle API
Management, Microservices and IoT solutions we feel we’re able to
help every modern software factory deliver better experiences and
meet evolving business objectives for revenue growth.”
According to Gartner, “Leaders are vendors that execute strongly
and that lead and influence the market. Recent entrants to this
market that have a limited record of execution are less likely to
be Leaders. The same applies to strongly executing vendors that are
overly cautious about innovation and risk. The most distinctive
attribute of Leaders is that they are able to address the widest
variety of API use cases: internal (application-to-application),
B2B, B2C, on-premises and in the cloud, and everything from
traditional, next-generation SOA "Mode 1" projects to the most
dynamic, agile and digital-driven "Mode 2" undertakings. For
further details, see the associated Critical Capabilities
report.
“The advent of sweeping digital transformation and the
platform/ecosystem business model have put API programs on CIOs'
agendas. They also require the attention of higher management (see
"Articulating the Business Value of APIs"). API programs frequently
start small with innovative ideas, and might involve a few
hackathons before they take off, but then they need to execute
really fast.
“Leaders have made sure their offerings can help their clients
thrive in this dynamic environment. In this Magic Quadrant, there
are many Leaders. There are three ways of becoming one: By
powerfully marketing and enriching a mature API management platform
— the obvious way; By acquiring Leaders or Visionaries, integrating
them into a wider application infrastructure offering and keeping
up the pace of API management innovation; By addressing digital
transformation and their integration challenges head on, and adding
fully functional API management. Leaders understand the market
trends that will benefit them and their clients' business
strategies, frequently in the form of digital transformations.
Leaders see the business potential of API programs, communicate
this potential to business units, and help their clients realize
it. There are no fully open-source Leaders in this market. But this
situation is only temporary, as we expect many open-source
providers to improve their positions.”
CA API Management is a comprehensive set of products that helps
organizations achieve digital transformation by unlocking the value
of data and empowering developers to grow the business and
capitalize on new opportunities. CA API Management includes CA Live
API Creator, CA API Gateway, CA Mobile API Gateway, CA API
Developer Portal, CA Microgateway, and CA API Management SaaS, and
is #1 ranked on ITCentral Station.***
According to the report, Gartner says “innovation is out there,
but in order to get fresh ideas, you need to publish the right APIs
and aim to create new business value, which is ultimately what
digital business is about.”
In the report, vendors were evaluated on completeness of vision
and ability to execute. For this report, under completeness of
vision evaluation criteria, Gartner includes market understanding,
marketing strategy, sales strategy, offering (product) strategy,
business model, vertical/industry strategy, innovation, and
geographic strategy. While under ability to execute evaluation
criteria for Product/Service, Gartner segments the providers’
capabilities product/service criteria into five categories which
correspond to stages in an API’s life cycle: planning and initial
design, implementation and testing, deploy and run (basic), deploy
and run (advanced), versioning and retirement.
“Digital initiatives based on APIs are all about providing
scalable, reliable connectivity between data, people, apps and
devices. We believe this recognition demonstrates our effort
to give customers access to advanced functionality for back-end
integration, mobile optimization, cloud orchestration and developer
management to create and adapt to modern architectures,” continued
Bhatia.
