Program full of API economy & APIOps - containers, testing, devops, micro services and monitoring

In the recent years there has been a major focus on how APIs are deployed and managed. APIs have now taken on a more dominant role in the areas of IoT, developing beyond the role of enabling any product or service to communicate with other products and services. Developers are currently defining APIs in accordance to their needs, making them and IT services the “new rock stars” of the IT industry. Which in turn has led to APIs becoming the standard by which the maturity of an organization’s IT service is assessed.

Join discussion in Facebook group API Days Nordic

API Days Nordic is the first event of its kind in Scandinavia with dynamic participants from the Scandinavian and Baltic countries. Countries in these regions have pioneered open data and eSystems at the government and city level, with such programs as “6Aika and Estonian eResidency”. API Days Nordic creates a unique opportunity to meet the teams, organizations and individuals responsible for these innovative programs.

For whom this event is

• An organization that is planning to create or has already created APIs for sharing service
• Developers who are using APIs in their developments; interested in discovering the best practices related to designing and managing APIs
• Curious to know more about terms like "API Economy" or "API Design" or "API Documentation".

API Days Nordic is a part of a global series of API Days events that will be held worldwide. It is two days of electrifying, informative showcases and workshops. Subjects such as: “How are APIs playing a significant role in connecting heavy machinery? How have APIs become the backbone of open data? How are APIs playing a role in IoT?” and more will be addressed, making this the event to attend!.

Event is organized by API:Suomi (Finnish API community) with support of API Days global network, COSS (the Finnish Centre for Open Systems and Solutions), API Duo OÜ (API strategy consulting), Tredea (Tampere Region Economic Development Agency) and apinf.io (open source API management). API Days Nordic is 2-day event and will be organized in Tampere, Finland.

The City of Tampere is running for the title of Europe’s innovation capital in the contest ”The European Capital of Innovation Award – iCapital”, organized by the European Commission.

Tampere is a growing city with a concentrated number of companies focusing in ICT-development. This gives Tampere based ICT-companies a strong foothold in developing and maintaining a national API driven data exchange layer (kansallinen palveluväylä) in Finland

In addition, Tampere is also home for multiple heavy industry giants such as “KoneCranes and Kalmar”. These companies are pioneers in Internet of BIG things.
