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.Incentivized
Mashery is great when it comes to deployment to your own datacenter and when it comes to managing third party API's like Salesforce using Mashery Cloud version. I would be a little bit more careful when deploying it on Kubernetes as it was not designed for it. New version 5 is re-architected to run more on natively on Kubernetes, but we have not tested it yet.Incentivized
API Manager allows for REST and SOAP API's to be easily created and trackedAPI 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 usedIncentivized
Easy integration of the TIBCO Cloud Mashery developer portal allows simple onboarding and user and application management.Configuration of TIBCO Cloud Mashery is both flexible and focused to address the main tasks for an API Management solution.The built-in OAuth Token capabilities provide a quick start to properly manage application access.Incentivized
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.
The "Control Center" admin dashboard is not performant. We have a lot of configuration data in Mashery (many endpoints, many plans, many users, many keys, etc.) and the website struggles with the volume of data it has to deal with.Their systems have limitations that make it more difficult for us to operate the way we would like. For example, there is a limit to the number of API Definitions we can create, as well as a limit to the number of Endpoints we can define in a Plan.Their support organization leaves a lot to be desired. Responses are slow, and when they do come they are often inadequate. We have to re-phrase the question to get them to answer it differently, or we have to repeatedly follow up to ask for additional clarifying information.Incentivized
Ease of use.Incentivized
i find some of the package adding and key are complex . UI experience is bad . Every step need front and backward navigation too much. It would be better if endpoint itself contain package and key addiction option Incentivized
Support has been good overall.Incentivized
Initially it was difficult to understand . after few day , it was easy Incentivized
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.Incentivized
I've really only looked at Mashery since it has been around a very long time and has a rich feature set. I do know our platform teams are looking into AWS gateway but not sure this product has everything we need.Incentivized
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.Incentivized
As a API Mediation layer it has helped with the troublesome port setup with internal and external clients. Meaning it made that easy to the client that they know where to go for access to an API.The interactive documentation is very well put together and has reduced the time that developers have to go back and forth with each other to figure how to call the API.Incentivized
