Integration

APIs have become mundane. They have become the de facto standard for connecting apps, data, and services. In the larger picture, APIs are driving digital transformation in organizations.

We strive with every service to provide experiences that significantly improve the development experience. We’re always looking for common pain points that everybody building software in the cloud deals with. And once we find those pain points, we build best-of-class software to address the need.

The IT industry is experiencing a shift from monolithic applications to microservices-based architectures.

Today, we’re releasing the Azure API for FHIR which enables rapid exchange of data according to the HL7 FHIR specification and is backed by a fully managed Platform-as-a Service (PaaS) offering in the cloud.
