Summary
In this chapter, we have covered a lot of ground by discussing the process of publishing your Products and APIs, as well as the different options that are available for doing so. We took you from creating the Plans, which consist of Rate Limits and the different options for configuring them, to how to configure and publish to a Catalog. Finally, you enabled consumer interaction by creating a consumer organization where applications can be created and Products can be subscribed to.
All of these steps are critical to enabling and enhancing the consumer experience. After all, it is this very experience that will draw consumers to your APIs and produce a robust, consumer-friendly API factory, ensuring a successful digital transformation and modernization effort.
In the next chapter, we will discuss API management and governance, which will expand on this so that you can manage, maintain, and organize your APIC environment to ensure continued success in the future.
