application programming interface
software is usually designed and created (aka coded/written/programmed) in integrated development environments (ide) like eclipse, intellij and microsoft visual studio that can simplify the process and compile the software (if applicable). as noted in a different section, software is usually created on top of existing software and the application programming interface (api) that the underlying software provides like gtk+, javabeans or swing. libraries (apis) can be categorized by their purpose. for instance, the spring framework is used for implementing enterprise applications, the windows forms library is used for designing graphical user interface (gui) applications like microsoft word, and windows communication foundation is used for designing web services. when a program is designed, it relies upon the api. for instance, a microsoft windows desktop application might call api functions in the .net windows forms library like "form1.close()" and "form1.show()" to close or open the application. without these apis, the programmer needs to write these functionalities entirely themselves. companies like oracle and microsoft provide their own apis so that many applications are written using their software libraries that usually have numerous apis in them.

software monetization is a strategy employed by software companies and device vendors to maximize the profitability of their software. the software licensing component of this strategy enables software companies and device vendors to simultaneously protect their applications and embedded software from unauthorized copying, distribution, and use, and capture new revenue streams through creative pricing and packaging models. whether a software application is hosted in the cloud, embedded in hardware, or installed on premises, software monetization solutions can help businesses extract the most value from their software. another way to achieve software monetization is through paid advertising and the various compensation methods available to software publishers. pay-per-install (ppi), for example, generates revenue by bundling third-party applications, also known as adware, with either freeware or shareware applications.
