API stands for Application Programming Interface, i.e. API is the way for an application to interact with certain system/application/library/etc. For example, there are API's for OS (WinAPI), API's for other applications (like databases) and for specific libraries (for example, image processing), etc. APIs are usually developed in a form consumable by a client application.
An application-programming interface (API) is a set of programming instructions and standards for accessing a Web-based software application or Web tool. A software company releases its API to the public so that other software developers can design products that are powered by its service. For example, Amazon.com released its API so that Web site developers could more easily access Amazon's product information.
