API & Backend
development
At icapps, we build scalable digital platforms, fully customized to our client’s and users’ needs. With over 15 years of experience in building complex modular business solutions, we provide the right ecosystem to cover all integration needs.
Our expertise
We are experts in leading technologies, API-first-, cloud-, native-, and headless development which results in top-tier, scalable, and secure solutions capable of making a real business impact.
Through integration development, we empower you to quickly integrate business applications within your digital solution ranging from authentication-, communication- and payment providers to CRM-, ERP- or any external systems. This results in centralized future-proof business solutions.
Our Back-office solutions, ranging from admin portals to complete Digital Experience Platforms, empower specific users to implement data-driven capabilities and deliver them to any front-end technology.
API Management
The backend of an application can be seen as the “heart” or “brains” of the digital solution. It is where the complex business logic of an application lives and where the data is processed and served. In addition to that, the adoption of API’s by enterprises has increased tremendously over the past decade. API’s act as the gateway to your digital enterprise, enabling them is necessary to make or break your digital business strategy.
Through API Management, we are able to deliver reliable solutions in this hyper-connected world that govern, secure, and monitor your API ecosystem. Our well-structured backends are generic and allow us to publish, manage and monitor the lifecycle of your API's. Besides that, they function as an aggregator that interacts with external applications to create an all-inclusive service for the end-user.
These API platforms enforce security and policies, continuously tracking usage and performance metrics. There is no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to technology architecture.
That’s why we are experts in leading technologies, API-first-, cloud-, native-, and headless development which results in top-tier, scalable, and secure solutions capable of making a real business impact.
Complex Integrations
Nowadays you need multiple digital tools and systems for sharing data across your ecosystem, it's essential to support your business, for platform optimization, and for the end-user personalization. We can be your go-to partner for these complex integrations. We are able to connect all your systems together and offer truly interconnected applications. Through integration development, we empower you to quickly integrate business applications within your digital solution ranging from authentication-, communication- and payment providers to CRM-, ERP- or any external systems. This results in centralized future-proof business solutions.
So no need to worry about siloed data or ineffective processes, just delivering the right experience, every time.
Back-office Solutions
Our Back-office solutions, ranging from admin portals to complete Digital Experience Platforms, empower specific users to implement data-driven capabilities and deliver them to any front-end technology. Through an intuitive Admin UI, we are able to provide you with the ability to effortlessly manage complex data and tasks in any digital solution.
To provide the right user experience we are not bound to one technology, together with our clients we determine the right tools for the job fully tailored to your needs. We strive for scalable yet intuitive systems fully embracing the headless approach, where content is stored separately from the presentation layer. So one system can manage all of your content, no matter its destination.
Our Backend Fundamentals
Regarding the development of compelling cloud platforms, we strive for following fundamentals:
Security is crucial, ranging from authentication to automated security analysis and sustainable data integrity, these are all vital to a healthy digital solution.
Scalability isn’t a bonus feature, prioritizing it from the start leads to improved user experience and higher agility. We always keep both performance and availability in mind.
Automation is key, optimized CI/CD flows are the foundation to achieve speed and transparency in your development flow.
How we can help you
We provide hands-on solutions to your digital needs and assist you in any step toward your preferred cloud platform. We are able to assist you from analysis to architecture design, development and aftercare:
Audit & Analysis
The technical analysis is an important part of any project where we determine the right strategy, building blocks, and architecture for your current or upcoming solution.
First, we identify the project objectives and we get to know the current enterprise ecosystem. We focus on identifying possible application silos and data requirements.
After that, we identify the possible integrations, required capabilities, and use cases for which we design the proper architecture.
Architecture Design
Together we identify the right architecture for your cloud platform. The right architecture makes the platform capable of handling the required functionalities with ease.
The expertise of our Backend and Cloud teams enables us to implement an API-first approach while ensuring reusability and extensibility tailored to our client's needs.
Thereby focussing strongly on security, optimization, and scalability.
Backend Implementation
Once the technical analysis and architecture are finished, our Backend teams can start implementing the determined system.
The business requirements are split into smaller pieces, divided over consecutive sprints for transparent follow-up and integration.
During development, we use battle-tested tools and standards to deliver cloud-ready, secure, and scalable solutions. Including testing and quality assurance in combination with an optimized CI/CD flow.
Monitoring, analytics & training
Once the implementation is operational, monitoring becomes a crucial aspect of any digital solution. We can take full control over this aspect.
We will monitor your systems and provide in-depth analytics containing insights into the usage and performance of your systems.
