Machine-learning-powered API governance (apidays talk)

Xero

Applied anomaly detection and clustering to partner API usage to catch governance problems early — presented at apidays LIVE Jakarta.

The idea

As platforms grow, partners quietly change how they use APIs — which can cause incidents, security issues and broken expectations. Self-reporting does not scale.

The approach

Treat API usage as data: anomaly detection and clustering analysis on partner API traffic to spot unexpected use cases early, so governance teams can act before an incident.

Why it matters

An early example (2020) of Jenks applying machine learning to an operational platform problem — years before the current AI wave.
