Goals
Implement
a unified, shared governance platform aligned with ACEA’s operating model
Enhance
API reuse and security, ensuring consistent and controlled access
Optimize
lifecycle management — from publication to deprecation — across the entire organization
Country:
Italy
Industry:
Energy
Business challenges
ACEA, one of Italy’s leading multi-utilities, launched a digital transformation program to make service management across its business units more efficient and integrated.
With multiple divisions and heterogeneous technologies, the company faced three key challenges in evolving its application architecture:
Enabling visibility across teams
ACEA needed a global, real-time view of its entire API ecosystem — capable of unifying processes, tools, and languages across departments and avoiding operational fragmentation.
Ensuring secure and structured access
It was essential to provide profiled, controlled, and guided access to APIs, both for internal use and for potential external exposure — minimizing security risks and simplifying permission management.
Overcoming fragmented ownership and standards
The lack of a shared governance model led to inconsistent responsibilities and duplicated efforts. ACEA needed a common structure to make publication, usage, and reuse processes transparent and efficient.
Why ApiShare
A shared operating model
ApiShare collaborated with ACEA to create and adopt a shared operating framework and common governance guidelines, promoting a culture of API reuse and standardization.
This eliminated duplication, improved communication, and ensured high quality throughout the entire lifecycle.
Processes, people, and technology
The partnership’s strength lay in ApiShare’s ability to automate compliance and development workflows, streamlining the work of developers, product owners, and architects.
Every stakeholder in the API lifecycle now works with consistent tools and processes, reducing errors and validation times.
A catalog as a corporate asset
The ApiShare Catalog is now ACEA’s single source of truth — a unified space where technical information becomes shared corporate knowledge, enabling discovery, collaboration, and efficient reuse of digital assets.
Benefits / Outcomes
Operational efficency
ACEA significantly reduced its time-to-market for digital services, simplified operational support, and optimized API publication and maintenance workflows.
Compliance with organizational and regulatory processes
Centralized management and traceable access ensure compliance with internal policies and regulatory requirements, providing governed exposures and constant control over the entire API ecosystem.
Shared Culture
APIs have become a shared corporate asset, enabling a common vision across teams and fostering a collaborative approach to designing and managing digital solutions.
