    The adoption of SAP Extension Suite is growing significantly and it has become a strategic platform for our company. SAP Extension Suite will most likely meet the requirements of most companies to get beyond small workgroup apps and tackle more strategic requirements. The most important thing that SAP Extension delivers is a single UI for development effort for web and mobile deployment.

    Pros
    Oracle
    • 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

    Cons
    Oracle
    • 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.

    • It was a bit of a hassle to configure at first but once setup it's easy and fast.
    • At a certain time they removed key items used in pipelines to force upgrades.
    • The new UI though works well feels less intuitive than the previous one.

    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.

    Return on Investment
    Oracle
    • 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.

    • Faster development cycle due to native integration with SAP products
    • Negative short-term ROI due to the lack of training material and significant differences with the previous version of the same tool (SAP Web IDE)
    • Tighter integration with corporate programming guidelines since SAP Extension Suite offers great integration with DevOps pipeline solutions
