Writing code on a whiteboard is a skill in and of itself. How does this awkward experience tell you anything meaningful about how well engineers can truly think and work in their element? Traditionally, developers have to spend hours upon hours going through technical whiteboard interviews. But it’s how engineers have always done it. It’s the industry standard. Today there’s a better way to evaluate skills. Companies are realizing that shifting toward skills-based hiring is the optimal way to get a leg up on competition. CTOs, VP of engineering and directors across industries, from finance to retail and even the government, are implementing skills-based hiring to save hundreds of hours of valuable engineering time.
In this session, we'll cover 10 lessons we had to learn - the hard way - by building a AI-powered assistant: Ozlo.
We've been working on Ozlo for over 3 years now. And, as the AI and conversational search landscape has grown over the last few years, we've evolved our thinking from the days of a blank search box. But, what does it take to build a truly compelling conversational search experience?
The benefits of integrating API management into your business strategy are evident, but the process is easier said than done. An organization’s goals for the project are often vague. Perhaps they want to realize more revenue or reach new audiences. Such a large investment of time and resources warrants more definably articulated goals. Without that laser focus, you have nothing to measure or track progress against.
Another important factor for API success is user adoption. You can theorize as much as you want about the market opportunity for your API, but only actual usage data will help you better understand your user’s needs and help you craft an API strategy that is clearly aligned with those needs.
This session will discuss how using a simple and trusted approach can help you diligently determine the value of your API project as well as its addressable market. The audience will gain insight into four phases enterprises must go through in order to determine the value of their API project, including:
Phase 1: Pilot—Get to Know Your Users
Phase 2: Define your Open API Model
Phase 3: Configure the API Management Platform
Phase 4: Integrate
This session will answer questions regarding opening APIs to third party developers, such as:
