From API chaos to controllable integration
With hundreds of connections between internal systems, customers, and partners, the number of APIs grew rapidly.
Every new application, customer, or acquisition brought with it additional integrations. The result: fragmentation, lack of oversight, and increasing concerns about security and scalability.
Why strategic API management is essential
For organizations like H.Essers, APIs are the digital glue between systems. But without central control and policy, risks arise:
Shadow APIs without supervision or access control
Poor collaboration between development, integration, and security
Slow onboarding of new applications and customers
No version control or consistent enforcement of policies
The conclusion is clear: APIs are no longer mere technical components, but strategic assets that require smart management.
The choice for Gravitee.io: flexible and powerful
After a thorough evaluation, H.Essers chose Gravitee.io as their API management platform. The solution had to fit within the existing IT architecture, while also being future-proof in terms of security, governance, and monitoring.
Why Gravitee.io?
Supports both sync and async communication (REST, Kafka, Webhooks, …)
Policy engine for access control, throttling, and security rules
Developer portal for reusability and self-service onboarding
Real-time monitoring and logging for error analysis
A major advantage in the logistics sector: support for real-time data streams.
The impact: faster integration, safer collaboration
Thanks to Gravitee.io, H.Essers will soon have a central API platform that provides full visibility over all internal and external APIs. Errors are detected more quickly through real-time monitoring, while policies and rate limiting ensure consistent security policies. New integrations will no longer be launched in days or weeks, but in just a few hours.
A blueprint for other organisations
What H.Essers achieves sets an example for other companies struggling with IT complexity. No more ad-hoc integrations, but a strategic approach:
One platform for governance, integration and monitoring
A common language between IT and business
Faster time-to-value for digital projects
