In today’s hyper-digital landscape, eCommerce businesses must be agile, innovative, and customer-centric to stay competitive.

Data is powerful in today’s business environment. Several organizations have realized that it is even more potent than the electricity that runs in our homes and gas used to cook food. Despite data being the 21st century’s most valuable commodity, different parts of the world have created various privacy regulations.

Today it is essential to ensure that the data is handled correctly and in line with the regulatory guidelines. ServiceNow works in tandem with clients across the globe to tackle the changes in various regions' privacy requirements. The California region in the US has come up with a new California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) to ensure that the organizations cannot use personal information of an individual without consent.

Going beyond the bare minimum 

The protection of personal data can be very tricky. When looking at privacy requirements, we must ensure that the solutions we are using today can deal with all the future regulatory changes and is scalable enough to support the global operations. 

Today, customers are more aware of data privacy acts and laws. They understand the risks they may face if they expose their personal information to various companies. Due to this, companies are pressured to respond to the heightened concerns of individuals. 

ServiceNow is aware of the data privacy needs and challenges individuals face and have developed solutions to take data privacy from far beyond the bare minimum. 

How ServiceNow Governance Risk and Compliance enables CCPA compliance

ServiceNow Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) help organizations fulfill the CCPA requirements. GRC monitors the applications that access an individual’s personal information and ensures that the organization follows the CCPA requirements using data from third-party vendors.

GRC ensures that:

CCPA  requirements with descriptions and guidance are easily imported into the system. However, a license is needed to import CCPA content from the Common Controls Hub. The CCPA requirements are mapped along with citations and controls needs for checks and monitoring into the application.

Organization policies are aligned with CCPA requirements to ensure data protection and smooth sharing.  

Specific information, such as geolocation, biometrics, educational information, employment details, IP address, browsing history, etc., are listed as personal information. You can also align data protection policy and other requirements with data protection assessments. The use case accelerator provides assessment templates and requirements that can be built with the assessment designer. The organization can schedule assessments regularly and see compliance status in the policy and compliance management dashboard for immediate remediation.

Organizations can interact with California residents through the service portal to share data and collect requests such as opt-ins, access, deletion. 

Organizations  can map information assets to configuration items (CIs) in the Configuration Management Database (CMDB), relate controls and risks to information assets, run audits, and assure ownership. 

Organizations manage third-party compliance smoothly. The organization needs to track the external flow of data to understand the type of personal data provided to third-party and how they use it. If more information regarding an individual is needed, then the organization must update the contract terms. 

ServiceNow’s Vendor Risk Management (VRM) ensures that the vendor meets the requirements and protects California-based individuals' data. VRM has a tiering process, library of assessments and questionaries, vendor portal, manages vendor portfolio and issues or actions for resolution, schedules data privacy assessments with vendors, and connects questionnaire to GRC controls to check compliance.

Secrets of a Great API

APIs are not new. They have served as interfaces that allow applications to communicate with each other for years together. But the role of APIs has changed vividly in the last few years. Most of the businesses have discovered that APIs can be used as an interface to the enterprises, allowing them to monetize digital assets, extend their value proposition with partner-delivered capabilities, and a connected experience to customers across channels and devices.

When you create an API, you are letting others outside or within of your organization to make use of your product or service to create new applications, attract customers, or expand their business. Internal APIs increase the productivity of the development teams by making the most of the reusability factor and implementing consistency in new the applications. Public APIs can add value to your business by letting third party developers to boost your services or bring their customers to you.

The Pitfalls of a Mediocre API

Organizations often decide to build an API without knowing about the far-sighted success factors or without engaging with the stakeholders. In either instance, the risk is that the API does not fit the needs for the business users. And APIs that does not fit the needs of users have a high cost: limited adoption by developers and ultimately, a failure to meet business objectives. Once the API is designed and built, drawing back these mistakes is hard and time-consuming. In most cases, you must start over again, restructuring a new API, executing it by connecting to the backend services, then rolling it out again to the developer community. Worst of all, you will have to transition all current users to the new API. This will involve additional work which they may not have the time or willingness to do. At that point, you will have to face a tough choice - continue to support the original API and its users until they eventually migrate or shut it off and potentially alienate and lose those users.

Another collective pitfall of API program is allowing the design of your API to be dictated by the constraints of internal systems or processes. APIs are modeled as the internal systems are difficult to comprehend and developers just would not invest the time it takes to become productive.

What you need is an API that is easy to use and very simple to understand. Developers should be able to evaluate the functionality of your API and start using it in just a few minutes. The only way to bring that kind of ease of use is to design for it upfront.

The Value of a Great API

A successful API is more than just a feature; when you view your API as a product, it should be a boon for your business. If the API is well designed and easy to use, this can be an huge benefit and opportunity, spinning your service into a platform that can grow in several ways.

A great API like MuleSoft API will encourage the developers to share it by creating a virtuous cycle and more engagement. A great API can help you grow an ecosystem of customers, employees, partners who can use and help you to evolve your API that are mutually beneficial.

But the potential of APIs can be realized when target consumers start to use them. For internal developers, APIs present a new way of working and one that will require some buy-in. In addition, internal developers would not use the API if they do not believe it’s the most efficient way to achieve their goals. Well-made APIs that are easy to use will be embraced by internal developers, paving the way to a well-defined, consistent, and sustainable approach to development. For public APIs, the situation is competitive. An ever-increasing demand of APIs is contending developer’s attention, making the design and ease of use critical to its adoption and success.

Unfortunately, many API providers shape their APIs before thinking through the success factors, resulting in failure to meet the basic business purpose. Delivering a great API like MuleSoft is not hard if you follow proven principles. Demystifying API strategy with 4 secrets of a great API.

Secrets of a Great API

1.      Design for great user experience

2.      Optimize for use case

3.      Provide easy access

4.      Build a community

Nowadays, customers demand satisfaction in digital experiences and expect changes right away. To bring in such a fast-paced experience, organizations are adopting APIs where changes can be made within hours. However, will adopt APIs make the development cycle agile? What are the teams that are not able to deliver the APIs at the speed that is required? What if testing is manual and time-consuming or if the deployment is on hold for a few days?

This article will show how you can resolve contemporary API challenges and automate the build and deploy cycles of your Apigee with GitHub, Jenkins, Maven, and Grunt.

 Use case

Many of you might have used the EDGE UI to create API Proxy, manage developers, deploy proxies, apps, keys, products, etc. But several customers want to automate everything and do not want to do it via the UI.

 Objective

We need to devise DevOps with GitHub to manage the API Bundle, Maven, and Grunt's source to make administrative tasks on Apigee Edge and Jenkins as the continuous integration tool to start/manage those tasks.

 What is Jenkins?

Problem Statement

APIGEE Manual Deployment Challenge

Errors due to manual deployments.

Repetition of the tasks on several nodes and domains

Manual work and time essential for Configurations and policies differs across all environments.

Collaboration challenges between business and IT

No standard repository

Solution

APIGEE Deployment Automation Benefits

Improvement in productivity as work is replaced with automation.

Reduction in errors eliminates rework

An automation system must record and show what it does to improve visibility and auditability.

Automatically deploy and configure.

Process Flow

Download API bundle

Add pom file for maven

Push the project to GitHub

Deploy the project from GitHub to Apigee cloud through Jenkins

Technical Overview

Using Git and GitHub

Put the API folder on a local system

Users can create GitHub repository and push the project from local system to GitHub

Build and Deploy the API Bundle Using Maven and Jenkins

Need to create new job in the Jenkins wizard

All parameters of Apigee needs to be set here

Connect your tasks with the GitHub repository from where we need to Deploy the API

Then give Apigee URL to where it needs to be deployed

This query will take all the parameters we used above.

Successfully Deployed

Successful Deployment on Apigee

Build and Deploy the API Bundle via Grunt and Jenkins

Undeploy one revision and deploy another revision:

Do you know?

Only 15% of the Configuration Management Database (CMDB) implementations done in the world are successful.

What is the reason for the CMDB implementation to go wrong?

Let’s learn about the common CMDB issues and how we can address them to make CMDB healthy and trustworthy.

 The Common CMDB Issues

Most organizations face challenges while implementing CMDB. CMDB is an ITIL database that is used for storing information about the hardware and the software assets of an organization (commonly known as configuration items (CI)).

A CI is a data type of the hardware and software assets that an enterprise stores in CMDB. The IT team of an organization expresses everything in terms of CI. Incidents are considered degraded CIs, problems are described in terms of which CI is the root cause and which one is impacted, and changes are described in terms of which CIs are changing or affected or at risk due to a specific change. The CI’s quality is essential in effective communication of the current state of a CMDB element.

Even though you layout plans and use advanced technologies, data quality issues may arise in CMDB. Some of the common issues are:

Duplicate CIs

Manually populated CIs

Overloaded CIs

Stale CIs

Orphaned CIs

How to Address the CMDB Issues?

 Many processes and individuals in an organization are dependent on the quality and accuracy of CMDB. To ensure that your CMDB is healthy and trustworthy, you can use the following three ways to address the underlying issues:

1. Build trust in your configuration management team and data

To build trust in your team and data, you must:

a. Acknowledge that your processes and artifacts are flawed and you need to fix them

b. Create a document of the steps that your team should perform to fix the CMDB data

c. Share honest and concise communication with your organization

d. Establish procedures for identifying issues and how these will be addressed

e. Establish and communicate a quality control plan

f.  Involve people from other teams in the quality control process

2. Measure the effectiveness and benefits of CMDB

The configuration management team must collect the following metrics to measure the effectiveness and benefits of CMDB:

a. No. of fulfilled configuration management requests b. No. of CMDB defects identified and fixed c. No. of CMDB’s missing key attributes d. No. of incidents and changes placed on CIs e. No. of reports designed and run f. Size of the CMDB g. List of use cases for which CMDB is utilized

3. Leverage the CMDB Health dashboard

The best way to monitor the CMDB’s health is with the help of a dashboard. Using CMDB’s health dashboard, you can see whether the KPIs—Completeness, Compliance, and Correctness—are met or not.

 Summary

This doesn’t end here. You must build your team and align your CIs, choose appropriate CI classes for your use cases, establish the best communication processes, and automate the information flows to keep your CMDBs healthy.
