Innovation cannot easily happen on

Poor support for participating in an
ecosystem of composite services
Solution: Create a platform for digital services

Create a
platform for
digital services
by adopting the API
architecture
API architecture is not a product or solution that you
implement and maintain
It is a blueprint and a new way of working for future
services
Why would we do this – What are the business benefits?
A unique platform creates real value and cannot be purchased
through a catalog
The platform becomes the differentiator

Finnair – Creating an API platform for ancillary sales
A strategic goal for Finnair is to increase the sales
of ancillary products (upgrades, bags, seat
reservation, meals etc.)
In early 2015, Finnair started working with CGI to
build the first integration services which offer a
simple API for this purpose, enabling sales of
ancillaries in all Finnair’s channels
