Case Study: Pearson Education expands digital reach with Apigee

Pearson Plug & Play Reaching new audiences through an innovative API platform

Pearson Education, the world's largest book publisher, faced the challenge of adapting to the emergence of new content platforms and maintaining interoperability across complex digital ecosystems. To remain nimble in the face of this rapid change, the company needed to embrace a more flexible architecture. They partnered with Apigee to build an innovative API platform to address these needs.

Apigee implemented its Apigee Edge platform, which provided API Services, Analytics Services, and Developer Services. This solution gave Pearson the tools to protect data, control traffic, analyze API usage, and manage the developer lifecycle. The result was the Pearson Plug & Play portal, which has increased the company's focus on making content available to new audiences, encouraged a constant flow of fresh content for developers, and successfully changed the market's perception of Pearson from a traditional publisher to a digital innovator.
