Business Alignment

APIs that can’t be mapped to products and business capabilities are invisible to leadership. Without business context, reuse decisions are based on technical similarity instead of strategic priority, and the gap between engineering investment and business outcomes remains unmeasurable.

• APIs and capabilities must be mappable to products and business capabilities
• Reuse analysis must consider business context, not just technical similarity
• Must support domain-driven organization of APIs and schemas
• Must connect technical inventory to business capability models
