  2 API Layer A RESTor Web services API layer offers a decoupled interface to data and/or functionality of one or more applications. It provides a common, language-agnostic way of interacting with an application

  3 Usecases Here are somecommon examples of where an API layer would be used: You need to connect to a legacy application that does not have a REST API. For example you have a custom CRM or HR system that you want employees to be able to access through a portal. You want to publish an API that enables your partners to communicate with your systems through a well-defined interface. Typically a Web services API is created for this.
