LET’S TALK:

ONE CATALOG FOR EVERY API ASSET

Store and find thousands of APIs and more than 50 asset types in one place using CentraSite, the API catalog. You can see across your entire API landscape—capabilities, asset owners, locations, versions, classifications and configurations—and store artifacts like requirements documents and usage guidelines.

You can easily define, describe and store APIs, business processes and related assets, such as XML schemas and business rules. Publishing to the API catalog is easy too using the web-based interface, Eclipse™-based IDEs and UDDI-compliant IDEs, bulk-loading using command line utilities and APIs. You can also publish to CentraSite directly from Software AG products.

TRACK DEPENDENCIES & KNOW THE IMPACT OF CHANGES

Make sense of the complex interdependencies among services, APIs and IT applications. CentraSite captures the relationships of services and APIs with the people and organizations that build, operate and maintain them. The API catalog software identifies and tracks relationships automatically as services and APIs are created, deployed and used.

View the impact of proposed changes. With CentraSite, you can see a graphical and interactive view of assets and their relationships. You can use power analysis to interactively explore your entire asset landscape. A real-time graphical map shows the “downstream” impact of any proposed change or disruption. Customize the view to restrict the set of assets and associations shown to zoom-in on the details that interest you the most.

GUIDE & GOVERN DEVELOPMENT

With CentraSite, your enterprise can enforce policies along an asset’s lifecycle at major governance checkpoints, such as funding approval, architecture and design reviews, and operational readiness reviews. Automated enforcement provides timely and consistent guidance to interdependent but autonomous SOA and API management teams.

MANAGE VERSIONS ACROSS THE API LIFECYCLE

Track and guide the evolution of every API asset, from conception through retirement. There is even a graphical lifecycle viewer and editor for visual representation. Multiple versions can exist side by side, and older versions can be retired over time.

You can audit and track all activities in CentraSite, for example, who logs in and out, who accessed CentraSite and when. Need stricter API security? You’ll find it with webMethods API Gateway.
