Apigee Edge vs. OCI API Management

Few scenarios 1. For viewing API analytics, I think it is best in the market 2. For earning money via API monetization 3. Securing API 4. Onboarding legacy APIs to provide modern REST endpoints

Oracle API Manager is well suited in a business or company that make use of Apis to facilitate access of backend services and data sources by the staff or customers or both. It is also imported in situations where all actions in a system need to be attributed to specific users.

• Better exception handling with the Raise exception policies help to monitor the flow by setting up the flow conditions.
• Easy development of a Proxy and APIs with much less tutoring and helps make getting started for new users easy.
• Very good documentation and blog with details of most common failures and error handling.
• A very very easy to use console.

• API Manager allows for REST and SOAP API's to be easily created and tracked
• API Manager allows for only certain people/applications to use the API (does this thru a subscriber service it provides)
• It also publishes the API's it is tracking so developers can easily know what interfaces already exist.
• The monitoring ability is a nice feature. The admin person can easily see how and where the APIs are currently being used

• Only one user can be active in a proxy at a time
• No version control
• Prohibited from using JSON.stringify on Apigee objects (tokens)
• Debugging is difficult
• Unable to rename or delete policies without bumping revision
• Why would anyone give a js policy one name, display name something else, and script a different name?
• 'Trace' limited to only 20 transactions
• UI allows users to add target servers, but users must utilize the api to turn on SSL.
• I'm sure there's more, they just aren't coming to mind right now.
• Apigee forgets (expires?) your password at random intervals without notice. Every few weeks, or days, sometimes even three times in one day, I'll attempt to login to Apigee and my password will be 'wrong'. I've reset my password and Apigee still claims it's wrong. I've had to reset my password three times before it finally let me log back in.

• Absence of Role-Based Access. A finer grain control on what type of users can call certain API Endpoints is needed.
• Performance with third-party databases isn't as fast as using Oracle Database.
• Long learning curve. Although Oracle API Manager provides performance and a vast deal of features, a certain level of expertise is required to effectively make use of them.

I am not the one deciding whether to use apigee or not really. But personally, I would recommend the use of it as developing APIs on it is easy. And as a mediator between backend servers, we could easily modify request and responses in it without touching any backend code while having a centralize gateway to access our backend APIs too.

Quite hard to get support, at least on the coding side, when we encounter blockers. But general concerns, they would schedule a call to you for them to get a whole picture of your concern. Albeit in my experience, bad really as they haven't replied about the progress, but otherwise seems to have been fixed.

Apigee is the best in the market in terms of API Analytics Apigee is having wonderful Documentation with short videos Security is a major concern and Apigee provides an easily configurable policy to secure API Quota and rate-limit is again very easy to configure on every API basis It provides various policies to transform the response from one form to another form e.g. JSON to XML or XML to JSON

Oracle API Manager is much easier to learn and understand then IBM Data Power Gateway and IBM API Connect. We selected Oracle API Manager in our company because to have a good intuitive interface with drag and drop features and because beginners and easily get up to speed to use this tool.

• As a public entity it is hard to say how much ROI we can have. We have yet to create a billing and ROI plan. We are thinking of other ways to create ROI, possibly through data/service barter.

• Oracle API Manager supports both REST & SOAP API's.
• Secure and attributable connection to back-end services and data sources. In addition to creating API's for querying data, you can also create API endpoints that can manipulate the data in the back-end databases.
• Although Oracle API Manager provides performance and a vast deal of features, to start with it is really important you train your people working on development, deployment and administrators to effectively use Oracle API Manager.
