Bridging the gap between developers and the business
Peter Bailey, Head of Product at J.P. Morgan Payments, and Philipp Krenn, Head of Developer Relations at Elastic, sat down to discuss the importance of developers and of fostering good developer relations.
With more than a decade in the industry, Elastic has built a foundation of creating developer-first experiences. They recognize that supporting developers is a long-term investment. Giving good recommendations and ensuring access to the right tools can help deliver success.
J.P. Morgan Payments is working with Elastic to put greater emphasis on developers—bringing a breath of fresh air to API development in the financial services industry. Like Elastic, we understand that clients can benefit from the unique expertise developers bring to the table, as they are the ones who are building the products and solutions that help drive innovation and business growth.
Identifying the needs of developers
The collaborative decision network at companies across industries is changing, with developers and technologists earning a bigger share of the voice in helping to shape business decision-making.
Developers have a wide choice in the technologies and solutions used, and that choice is critical in helping them build new products and solutions in virtually every industry. Leading with effective developer tools is a common goal amongst an ever-growing number of companies—a trend that emphasizes the importance of collaboration with empathy between developer teams and the business in order to provide the right resources to developers at the right time in the product journey.
Developers are tasked with solving complex problems and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. The stakes are high, but their technical expertise and ability to think differently allows them to create cutting-edge payment systems and seamless user experiences that others might not have considered.1 With this in mind, how can we provide the necessary support?
Delivering dedicated developer solutions
J.P. Morgan Payments is helping to simplify online payments for developers across the financial services and fintech industries. The J.P. Morgan Payments Developer Portal is designed to provide developers with the tools needed to build solutions that allow organizations to effectively accept, manage and send payments.
With our suite of tools and expertise, we empower developers to operate securely at any scale, while demystifying the complexities of global payments. Our APIs come complete with detailed and accurate technical documentation, offering both conceptual insights and practical how-to guides. Detailed testing guides and support information help to ensure that developers have the tools they need. Our purpose-built solutions prioritize security and efficiency, allowing developers to design streamlined payment processes with confidence.2
Elastic plays a big part in making all of this possible. The company was built around technical audiences, with a focus on supporting developer communities, building developer tools and creating frictionless experiences. Elastic helps developers quickly and easily find the data they need, which is essential when working with complex payment systems and processes.1
