Overall Satisfaction with IBM API Connect
IBM API Connect is being used by a few departments. Since we run our backend services in IBM Cloud, we choose IBM API Connect as the API gateway solution. It provides the routing rules, security, and rate limits before the calls can reach our backend services. We also use its analytics feature to get more insights.
Pros
- Enhanced security with client id and client secret features.
- Easy to deploy API changes through automation.
- Good UI to manage APIs.
Cons
- Sometimes we see issues after deploying API changes, re-deployment can solve it.
- A bit hard to troubleshoot issues if the calls do not reach our backend services.
- It makes our services more secure, as we don't expose any endpoints to public.
- It provides good integration with other IBM Cloud services we use, reduces our development effort.
- Automated deployments save us time.
