System API

API layer that exposes data from a system of record (ERP, CRM, database) in a canonical, system-insulating way.

Definition

System APIs hide underlying system complexity and change, are usually owned by central IT, and are reused by many Process APIs.

Exam tip

System APIs should not contain cross-system orchestration logic.
