  • This tool helps create APIs that are efficient.
  • This tool makes testing endpoints simple.
  • This tool is excellent for beginners in backend technology.
  • Oracle API Manager has worked great for our department so far. One suggesting would be to add a tool to include testing of multiple APIs linearly.

  • Provides the customization to manage the Oracle DB.
  • Better security mechanism provided which secures our data.
  • Manages concurrent user login at the same time and distributes the resources as per requirements.
  • It is slow as compared to other databases because of its high functionality.
  • Sometimes it hangs due to network overuse.
  • More features need to be added in terms of reporting.

  • Mature and Reliable. Last year, Oracle API Manager was quite buggy, and couldn't be used at production-level. Fortunately, almost all of the problems that it had previously are now patched.
  • Offloads Most of the Workload of Developing APIs. While defining APIs, Oracle API Manager does a great job in providing suggestions and error checks in our logic.
  • Supports SOAP and REST. Not only can you create APIs that can query for data, but you can also create API endpoints that can manipulate the data in your back-end databases.
  • 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 enables the anaylization of APIs.
  • It also has the capability of tracking the usage and how the APIs are performing.
  • It also controls the access to APIs at runtime.
  • Oracle API Manger should have its own tutorials on how to use the software and add more languages for more users to understand.

  • 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
  • I would say it would be nice if it could handle non-Oracle type API's...such as in-house developed interfaces, etc.
  • It would be nice if it at least could list non-Oracle type APIs so that this system became a repository for ALL of the application interfaces
  • Maybe it has this and I missed it, the monitoring appears to be one API at a time, would be nice to see a page that has all of the monitored APIs with some basic monitored info perhaps. It does have alerts, audit trails, and integrates with Enterprise Manager (I did not see this integration though)
