Our Client
Our client is a key part of a major public institution. They manage everything IT-related, from developing and deploying to maintaining and supporting the tools the institution relies on. Their mission is to ensure that the tech infrastructure and digital services are solid, efficient, and secure, which is crucial for driving innovation and maintaining smooth operations.
Challenges Faced
The Application Programming Interface (API) Gateway team was on a rapid growth path, expanding to meet the institution’s increasing technological demands. This growth presented two main challenges: managing the rising workload and launching a new project, the API Catalogue.
First, the team needed to scale up quickly, balancing their ongoing responsibilities while training new members.
Second, the API Catalogue project was an ambitious initiative aimed at documenting and integrating APIs comprehensively. The challenge was to create a user-friendly catalogue that could be easily updated and maintained over time.
Additionally, coordinating with external freelancers and keeping clear communication with management added layers of complexity. Ensuring everyone was aligned and informed was crucial to navigating these multifaceted challenges.
Paving the Way to Success
To tackle these challenges, Amaris Consulting took decisive action. We expanded our team by bringing in additional expertise and collaborated with a skilled freelance developer. This collaboration was key to designing the API Catalogue application, which showcases the institution’s best-documented APIs and highlights those that could be reused in other projects.
Our approach involved integrating new technologies and exploring innovative methodologies. We maintained consistent and open communication with managers through regular progress updates, ensuring everyone was aligned and informed. This not only helped us meet the client’s immediate needs but also set a benchmark for high performance and reliability within our team.
Benefits Unlocked
