Case Study: RTE achieves real-time data access and rapid API adoption with Axway AMPLIFY API Management

Improving customer relations with innovative new services and convenient access to data

RTE, the French transmission system operator, launched an API-driven transformation to open its information system to customers, partners and the public to improve customer experience and comply with open‑data requirements. The main challenge was to provide convenient, real‑time access to metering and other data and to gain visibility and control over who received which files — replacing slow, hard‑to‑monitor file transfers, multiple portals and an aging modem network.

RTE deployed an API management platform (Axway AMPLIFY) to replace file transfers with secure, standards‑based APIs, monitor exchanges and accelerate service delivery — with new APIs exposed in about eight weeks. The platform now serves ~3,300 subscribers (about 1,000 active API consumers), supports ~340 million API calls per year (300M public, 40M private), exposes ~40 APIs and ~100 data resources, and has enabled faster innovation and broader data use.
