I think API’s are the way of the future as they really enable building applications from building blocks that were not quite envisioned by the original authors. We recently launched http://blitz.io to rapidly load and performance test API’s and obviously, we have an API too. “gem install blitz”. :) So Sam, do you guys help your customers with performance metrics on their API’s beyond providing visibility and analytics into the usage?

Thank you for the positive comments! I am planning a few more blogs on Strategy + Execution with APIs. What are the topics that you’d like to see covered?

I’ve read this again and again over the last couple of days, and it’s just very very good, and deceptively simple.

Great article, as I have written in the past companies should lead with their APIs – http://www.trendslate.com/2010/11/24/lead-with-your-api/
