API Development

APIs are the backbone of modern software applications. They allow different software systems to communicate, share data, and perform tasks seamlessly. This is evident in the Diversey Sales Explorer Tool Case Study, where a bespoke API integration empowered sales teams with real-time data and streamlined workflows.

Imagine you're a retailer with an e-commerce site. By developing a robust API, you can allow third-party vendors to integrate your products into their platforms seamlessly. This not only expands your market reach but also provides a new revenue stream. As detailed in the Domino Jewellery Case Study, APIs played a crucial role in creating a connected, efficient B2B e-commerce solution.

Similarly, for businesses with multiple internal systems developed by different teams, a well-documented API can serve as the glue that binds these systems together, enabling smoother operations and better data flow.

At Toru Digital, we focus on creating well-documented, robust, flexible, and secure APIs that make it simple for internal IT teams and third-party developers to implement and utilise. Whether it's a RESTful API, SOAP, or GraphQL, we ensure top-notch performance and reliability.

Design:

We start by understanding your specific needs and objectives through a detailed discovery phase involving technical personnel from your side. This includes examining the structure, models, databases, and functional requirements.

Build:

Our development team will then mock-up the API using tools like Open API. This helps generate a detailed structure that guides the build phase.

Integration is a critical aspect of any API development project. We ensure seamless integration with your existing systems and thoroughly test the APIs to iron out any potential issues before deployment. Security is also paramount, and our rigorous testing includes various security assessments.

Optimise:

Our work doesn't end with the deployment of your API. We offer ongoing support and maintenance to ensure your API remains up-to-date and continues to perform at its best. Need to add new features or improve existing functionalities? No problem, we're here to help you every step of the way.

• Enhanced Connectivity and Integration: APIs connect different systems seamlessly, ensure data consistency across channels, and expand capabilities with third-party integrations.
• New Revenue Streams: APIs facilitate product integration with third-party platforms, enable innovative applications and services using your data, and streamline operations through automation.
• Scalability and Flexibility: APIs scale with your business needs, easily adapt to updated features, and provide tailor-made solutions to meet specific requirements.

APIs open up data to new channels and opportunities, fostering creativity in services, content, and products that can be used by everyone.
