In 2020 the worldwide annual cost of API development reached 100bn USD. The global pandemic further accelerated the push for digital transformation. The need for connecting capabilities digitally reached the all-time maximum. Yet, we are manually wiring our systems together. We hard-code our application in a process hardly scalable and borderline reliable. The autonomous integration pattern enables our applications to discover, contract, and connect capabilities automatically without worries about maintenance. 

The DNS-like registries of capabilities will form Autonomous Integration Mesh and replace word-of-mouth and web search to enable blazing-fast discovery and AI-driven capability consumption. In this talk, we will explore the Autonomous Integration Pattern and discuss its practical implementation, cost, and time reduction impact on current API practices.
