  • Patent number: 9390178
    Abstract: An embodiment of the invention pertains to Web application programming interface (API) data associated with a Web API ecosystem. The embodiment comprises constructing a data structure that is selectively related to at least some of the Web API data associated with the Web API ecosystem. The embodiment further comprises commencing an analytics operation to determine specified information which is of interest to a given Web API user, wherein the given Web API user has a role that pertains to the Web API ecosystem. Responsive to commencing the operation, Web API data related to the data structure is used to determine one or more preliminary data elements, wherein at least one of the preliminary data elements comprises an answer to a specified preliminary query. Respective preliminary data elements are selectively used to determine the specified information that is of interest to the given Web API user.
