StrikeIron Launches the Marketplace API

Tuesday 31 January 2006

Web service enables ISVs to create 'live' smart applications with seamless integration, 'invoke-thru' usage tracking and on-the-fly licensing

StrikeIron Inc. has announced the launch of the StrikeIron Marketplace API, an interface that allows Independent Software Vendors to integrate StrikeIron Marketplace Web services into their on-demand applications. The API also provides an integrated Web service interface allowing ISV partners to provide additional functionality and live data into their applications.

ISVs can now deliver applications that directly leverage external Web services without their customers needing to leave the application being used, the vendor said. StrikeIron added that the key benefits to ISVs include an interface that provides on-the-fly Web services access for integration with an ISV's application, customized Marketplace WSDLs for each ISV providing usage tracking for individual Web services across multiple ISV applications, and an "invoke-thru" mechanism which provides operational views and compensation directly to the ISV on a transactional model.

The API also offers a real-time directory of all services available in the Marketplace, including ISV-customized WSDL URLs for each Web service in the Marketplace. The API also provides registering and provisioning of Web services usage and licensing.

Currently, the StrikeIron Web Services Marketplace provides Web services for CRM, e-commerce, financial, data cleansing and other applications. CRMfusion, an online systems integrator and software developer, has integrated several data quality tools into their Salesforce.com add-on AppExchange applications. The API now enables "data within multiple customer contact records can be validated, cleansed, and augmented in real-time directly within the CRM system,” said Glenn Wilson, president CRMfusion.

Webservices.Org recently spoke to Bob Brauer, CEO and founder of StrikeIron, about this announcement and the opportunities and challenges around the Web services marketplace model. To view the full interview, click here .
