What Is TIBCO API Exchange?

TIBCO® API Exchange is a platform that hosts and manages open APIs. TIBCO API Exchange enables the building of integrated marketplaces, where API providers and API consumers come together to create, host, manage, learn about, and use open APIs.

TIBCO API Exchange facilitates API distribution and access in the following ways:

•	Provides access to enterprise data or business functionality provided by API providers and exposed as web APIs.

•	Allows internal and external developers to embed your functionality in their applications.

•	Takes your business to new channels, markets and customers.

•	Enables API management by regulating access, empowering partners, and providing visibility to products.

Figure 1 shows how API providers open APIs to developers, who build applications that reach new customers.
