In sum this means app-ification of the - from the business people - boring matter of REST APIs. In the end, you build or use a product that abstracts many things away. (There is an old joke, that Excel sheets simply become apps now) In my experience in Financial Industry, this leads to second level problems: What and how to build a new product? So there is an important intersection between the new users, Citizen Developers, and Product Managers.
