Why API Management? What is API Management?

As you start designing, creating, and deploying your APIs you quickly realize that you are not quite "done" yet.

After your APIs have been published and more and more API clients start consuming your APIs you find yourself in the position of making a lot of decisions about how (or if) you need:

- To scale your APIs
- To secure your APIs
- To analyze usage of your APIs
- To configure your APIs
- To rate limit your APIs
- and more!

This is where API Management comes in!

API management is the process of:

- Building
- Publishing
- Securing
- Versioning
- Observing
- Scaling
- Cataloging
- and even Retiring your APIs

You create an ecosystem that allows you to manage the complete lifecycle of your APIs so that your organization can focus on adding value to your core business.

A few API Management features are:

⭐ An API Gateway which handles the routing and management for all your APIs through policies that can be applied to individual APIs or a set of APIs.

⭐ An API Portal which serves as a self-service hub for developers to gain access to API documentation, SDKs, and other resources needed for consuming your APIs.

⭐ An API Dashboard where you can observe API usage, view key API metrics, and manage a variety of API analytics.

⭐ An API Catalog for organizing, cataloging, indexing, and presenting all the public and private APIs that you use in your organization.

⭐ An API Builder for using low-code / no-code tools to design, build, integrate, and deploy your APIs.

Some of the benefits of API Management are that by using tools like an API Gateway, you have also added flexibility and power to your APIs by going from a situation where you are managing each API independently to a unified system where you are orchestrating a complete set of APIs as a product.
