IBM DataPower Gateway vs. SwaggerHub

WebSphere DataPower Gateway is really beneficial if you are trying to integrate two or more systems. It provides you with comfort and peace of mind by creating a DMZ zone for the services which are going out of the intranet to hit external clients APIs. It is greatly recommended if you have a very high volume service or API which is being used by a majority of clients because it has a dedicated physical box present which takes care of memory, CPU and all such stuff. So, all your transactions happen at wire-speed.

ReadyAPI and SwaggerHub are a match made in heaven. Being able to so easily import the API directly into ReadyAPI and then being able to generate a test suite from the API is my favorite part of these softwares. We have rather large services so building out the API can take some time

• The most obvious thing that DataPower does exceptionally well is security. All the built-in supported security capabilities allow us to isolate most security tasks to DataPower and as a result "protect" down steam services/systems to have to deal with security.
• DataPower is very good at protocol conversion and as it is usually used on the edge allows you to narrow down the protocols used between the companies public and private networks.
• The appliance concept makes maintenance, recovery and, management so much simpler.

• Treating the design as documentation ensures that we have consistent and well defined APIs
• API consumers can export the swagger definition or code stubs to use within their development environment
• We can iterate through multiple versions of a definition privately before making a version publicly available

• API security
• WAF improvements
• Security improvements
• REST support
• Kafka support and event streaming

• The user interface could be more improved to sustain with other similar tools in the market.
• Beneficial if we have better integration with third party softwares.
• Nice to have ability to download the documentation in usable formats.

In terms of usability, it has many advantages over other competitors in terms of integration, as it allows for the optimized creation of integration flows in a very quick and intuitive way from browsers, allowing for granular export and import of work, guaranteeing compatibility between different versions of the product.

In his brand DataPower has not competitors, in security, transform and data validations DataPower is better than other products.

The only other product we looked at was Postman. But we liked the SwaggerHub UI & the integrations it has with the AWS API gateway. Though Postman has some other great features like the ability to write test cases & execute them, SwaggerUI was more convenient to document & share them.

• It has really taken our business to the next level. We have expanded and integrated with so many new vendors and for all those integrations DataPower is serving as our security gateway.
• We don't have to depend on any other tool for doing the load balancing of the incoming requests as that is also taken care inside the WebSphere DataPower Gateway box itself, thereby distributing the load equally.
• It has made our platform much more secure, uniform and robust to deal with any kind of incoming message format or threat as well due to its latest security mechanisms and huge processing power.
