API governance is crucial for enterprise success. By integrating policy guidance as developer signals within their Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) tools and processes, enterprises achieve higher policy compliance at substantially lower recovery costs. This approach enhances the developer experience and offers management a transparent overview of their API portfolios, facilitating ongoing improvements in API production. The API Health Dashboard, an exemplary governance application for internal portals, provides upper management with a clear perspective on the performance of their APIs.
