APIs: the good, the bad, the debatable, with Markus Kümmerle, Deutsche Telekom and CAMARA, and Daryl Schoolar at Recon Analytics

A conversation with Markus Kümmerle, Deutsche Telekom and CAMARA, Daryl Schoolar at Recon Analytics and Monica Paolini at Senza Fili on the value, benefits and challenges of APIs

APIs have been around for a long time, but in the last couple of years have become one of the brightest beacons of monetization, even though their role is much wider than that. With the GSMA launch of the Open Gateway, there are signs of growth and adoption, but also questions about adoption paths, use cases and business models.

In this Sparring Partners, Markus Kümmerle, Deutsche Telekom and CAMARA, Daryl Schoolar at Recon Analytics and Monica Paolini at Senza Fili dissected the opportunities and challenges of APIs and look into what’s ahead for operators, application developers, hyperscalers, and everybody else in the ecosystem.

  • Use cases: What are APIs good for?
  • API definition: What’s the role of open, internal, operator-specific and vendor-specific APIs?
  • Monetization: Will APIs be better at improving network efficiency or at generating new revenues?
  • Business models: Who will pay for APIs? What services need APIs?
