Run Your APIs Using Microsoft TechnologyThe Akana API Management solution lets you build your APIs uisng a wide range of on-premise and Azure-based technology, including WCF, Service Bus, BizTalk, and Azure App Services. It will ensure that your APIs are consistently secured, monitored and integrated according to your enterprise standards and requirements.
● Secure Your APIs – Use centrally defined security policy to ensure that your APIs have the right level of Microsoft security, including Kerberos, WCF-WSHttp, and Azure Active Directory
● Monitor Your APIs – Use Web-based dashboards and powerful analytics tools to get real-time visibility into API performance, dependencies, and alerts
● Integrate Your APIs – Use powerful mediation and transformation features to ensure your APIs can connect to a wide variety of Azure, SaaS and backend resources including Redis Cache, Salesforce, and enterprise data accessed through NET.TCP services and BizTalk applications.
Use Service Bus for Cloud to On-Premise API IntegrationA compelling mobile app user experience requires deep integration with backend enterprise Microsoft resources. The challenge for enterprise API initiatives is to make Microsoft BizTalk applications, Microsoft SQL Server databases, and other enterprise resources easily yet securely available to APIs running in the cloud.
Utilizing the Microsoft Azure Service Bus safe and secure cloud to on-premise integration technology, Akana’s API Gateway makes it easy to manage the integration of cloud services with enterprise resources. For example, the Akana API Gateway can manage and secure WebAPI services, WCF services and BizTalk applications as APIs available on the public Azure cloud.
Manage APIs in a Microsoft Services EnvironmentEnterprise APIs exist within a larger internal enterprise application services environment. These enterprise services, built on Microsoft WCF, Microsoft BizTalk, Microsoft SQL Server, and other enterprise resources, must exist within the same lifecycle management practice as your Azure APIs to ensure a consistent, unified, comprehensive enterprise application services environment.
