  2. We are sharing our studies to external communities We are

    sharing our studies to external communities Active Member of the API Thinking Community head of workgroup “Sustainable digital API” External Communities • As there is no standard yet on the API Ecodesign • As environmental impact is a shared concern • as guideline and calculation rule must be shared and validated by many to be recognized External Communities • As there is no standard yet on the API Ecodesign • As environmental impact is a shared concern • as guideline and calculation rule must be shared and validated by many to be recognized
  3. Workgroup “Sustainable API” “API Numériquement Responsable” A collective that draws

    its strength from its members Since 2020, the 1st french collective dedicated to APIS Free Network Diversity
  4. The API Green Score is a toolkit to help API

    users, designers and owners to ask themselves questions about the digital impact of their API This tool is based on 7 differents domain in order to create relevant and realistic metrics that stakeholders can use. The evaluation method is shared with all API Personas (API owners, API consumers, API developers) This toolkit concern eco-design and eco-consumption of API Excellent Acceptable Average Poor Very Poor A B C D E
  5. • Decommission an unused API • Deploy API near consumer

    • Reduce number of API versions • Unify API catalog • Create consumer referential • Identify API for single usage • Urbanization with Data Governance • Decommission an unused API • Deploy API near consumer • Reduce number of API versions • Unify API catalog • Create consumer referential • Identify API for single usage • Urbanization with Data Governance • Exchange with Smallest Size • Following API payload size • Prefer Opaque Token to JWT • API Customer Centricity principles • API Data / Granularity • Leverage Odata or GraphQL for DB APIs • Data Management • Dynamic Content • Exchange with Smallest Size • Following API payload size • Prefer Opaque Token to JWT • API Customer Centricity principles • API Data / Granularity • Leverage Odata or GraphQL for DB APIs • Data Management • Dynamic Content • Optimize queries to limit returned information • Collect only required data • Provide only changed data • Use cache • Communicate on Payload size • API used geolocally close to their consumers • Optimize queries to limit returned information • Collect only required data • Provide only changed data • Use cache • Communicate on Payload size • API used geolocally close to their consumers • Promote event architecture • Filter data in payload • Pagination • Webhook or Business Notification • AsyncAPI • Promote event architecture • Filter data in payload • Pagination • Webhook or Business Notification • AsyncAPI • Define a basis of criteria for rating • Provide KPIs (Nb of call, payload size, nb of equipments used, …) • Evaluate energy consumption for one API • Know language impact for energy consumption • Define a basis of criteria for rating • Provide KPIs (Nb of call, payload size, nb of equipments used, …) • Evaluate energy consumption for one API • Know language impact for energy consumption • Use adaptive infrastructure • Use as few cloud suppliers as possible between consumer and backend • Be near Data Center • Define which actions are more relevant to do to reduce the impact of API ? • Use adaptive infrastructure • Use as few cloud suppliers as possible between consumer and backend • Be near Data Center • Define which actions are more relevant to do to reduce the impact of API ? • API Green Score design • Guideline resources • Sharing criteria of evaluation and methods • Adapt the communication of each personas • API Green Score design • Guideline resources • Sharing criteria of evaluation and methods • Adapt the communication of each personas API Lifecycle Data Exchange Data Architecture Tools Infrastructure Communication 7 domains
  6. Impact EcoScore API Lifecycle API uses: (who, when, what) Description

    Governance Tools to measure KPI per API Example Have a consumer referential What is the impact of this referential on the API Green Score? Who consumes my API? What : Which version of API? When : Which number of asked calls vs number of calls ? Date of last call? What is the calls volume ? API Product Owner Center of Expertise API Logs API / Operational Reporting Analytics API Gateway To influence the Metrics API Gateway/API Portal Nb of call per consumer Nb of consumers per API Nb of versions per API (US03) Location of consumers Documentation quality (US06) What is the API Footprint? API Order 10000/ call / month API last Call Nb of Consumers who used this API 20%
  7. DE01 : Prefer an exchange format with the smallest size

    (JSON is smaller than XML). One of the structuring questions when designing an API is the selection of the exchange format to use. If the choice is often made by technical constraints or personal affinities, the durability aspect is also to be taken into account. Indeed, there are exchange formats that are heavier than others. For example, JSON is smaller than XML. The second format will therefore have a stronger impact on the network, the computing and the storage. In the interest of sustainability, we recommend to use a lighter exchange format to reduce the bandwidth consumed for the requests, the compute and storage resources consumption used to process and store the payloads. Expected gain: Network, compute and storage impact reduced network compute storage Data Exchange

  9. DE02/DE03/DE05 : Use cache to avoid useless requests and preserve

    compute resources. The use of a cache has become common in computer architectures to store frequently used information on a fast storage. In addition to improving the response time of APIs, and therefore the consumer's experience of the service, it also saves computational resources by avoiding executing the same query on the same data multiple times. It is recommended to place a cache in front of each brick of an architecture returning data (API, database, frontend application, ...) and close to the users to preserve compute resources and improve performances of the API. Expected gain: Compute resources saved & Network impact reduced network compute storage Data Data Exchange
  10. LO01 : Collect only required data and use the right

    retention time according to the business requirements. It is quite common for applications to store a large amount of useless information without time limit. This results in an excessive consumption of storage services for data that will not be used or no longer used. It is necessary to clean up the data in order to keep only the data that is useful and to define a coherent retention policy in order to delete them once their validity or exploitation period has passed. Expected gain: Volume of data stored reduced & Network impact reduced network compute storage Tools
  11. https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/rollup-overview.html detail by each API call detail by each hour

    call keep details by brand/country/method aggregate : Average(Response Time), sum (nb of call) by hour automatic rollup process to reduce granularity Major Impact : save disk space
  12. AR05 : Carbon Footprint Dashboard Some cloud providers produce carbon

    footprint dashboard. You can implement your own or adapt it based on your infrastructure and be close to your usage This is not a rule to evaluate API Green score, but it is important to be able to measure the impact on infrastructure Ex : evaluation the impact of compute, network, disk and divided by the number of calls of the evaluate API. Expected gain: Network, compute network compute storage Architecture
