API Gateway
Secure and mediate your APIs
Secure and mediate traffic between the API consumers and your back-end servers. Also monitor API traffic to collect metrics for tasks such as performance dashboards and invoicing.
Security and authentication
Use policy-driven security to uniformly secure and monitor access to back-end services from apps using your APIs. You can support both transports and message-layer security, including authentication, authorization, digital encryption and digital signatures.
You can optionally establish DMZ-strength security between consumer apps using your APIs and your internal servers. You do that by configuring the inner firewall to deny all inbound connections and instead use persistent connections opened from internal servers to access back-end services.
Transformation and routing
Thanks to extensive support for mapping and transformation, your API consumers have flexibility in the protocols, message formats and transports they use. You can dynamically route requests using a variety of routing methods based on payload content and context, straight-through routing and load-balancing among multiple service providers.
