The
realities are very exciting at different levels. In effect,
according to Research and Markets, during this period, the network operators
have leveraged APIs to derive wholesale transaction revenue as well as
communication-enabled application revenue. There
has also been a significant amount of use for internal carrier services
such as customer relationship management.
Incremental growth opportunities for CSPs include a variety of services and
application support such as Robo Call Blocking (associated with Do Not Call
Registry and Telephone Consumer Protection Act compliance in the United States)
as well as Unwanted Call blocking services in general.
However, the report sees a general flattening of the growth curve for traditional
consumer centric and handset oriented services supported by Telecom APIs. Longer term, Telecom API growth will
come from new networks such as those cellular and non-cellular WANs supporting
the Internet of Things (IoT). The report
sees communication-enabled application revenue plateauing while IoT
network-support revenue becoming a more substantial revenue component for
Telecom APIs by 2025.
