Alcatel-Lucent was looking to integrate ProgrammableWeb’s API monitoring services and other API related technologies with its own Open API Service and Developer Platform to strengthen its relationship with developers. During ProgrammableWeb’s time with Alcatel-Lucent, they documented over 8,000 APIs. Three years later on April 13, 2013, MuleSoft announced the acquisition of ProgrammableWeb to "become the go-to destination for APIs and Integration”.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=MuleSoft Acquires ProgrammableWeb )〕 Despite being owned by various external companies throughout its history, ProgrammableWeb has maintained its position as an unbiased observer of the API economy and does not discriminate in terms of who's news, contributed posts, sponsored posts, or advertisements it carries. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「ProgrammableWeb」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
