Azure API Management Introduction

Master the Core of API Management with Azure API Management

Azure API Management provides a scalable, multi-cloud API management platform for designing, releasing, and debugging APIs.

Azure Api configuration provides a visual portal of all potential api calls and their responses. The main use of Azure API Management is to have one central interface to create and manage APIs for applications and services. API Management can allow you to monitor API health, catch errors on each API call, and much more.

We will learn about the main use cases of Azure API Management -

1) One point of access and design - Microsoft Azure API Management automates and enables the design, deployment, and testing of your APIs in one place, saving precious and costly developer time.

2) Authentication - Microsoft Azure API Management has a wide variety of security options that can help protect your incoming and outgoing information. These methods include authorization keys, basic-auth, client certificates, and API Mutual certification.

3) Full overview of API - For dev teams, the process of manually creating and editing APIs is very time-consuming. Thankfully, Azure API Management provides a single point of monitoring for all API endpoints. Developers can look at their API endpoints and generate visual dashboards to help ensure everything is set up correctly.

4) Talk to Other API's - Microsoft Azure API Management developer portal provides a user friendly method way for other devs to understand your APIs and make sure they are ready to send and receive data from them.

We will understand why Azure API Management is the perfect API development tool. We will learn about its features & capabilities.

API's allows different softwares and websites talk to each other, and Azure API Management platform makes that process fast, cost-effective, and secure. Having the ability to manage and control the entire API ecosystem through one “gateway” is essential for an enterprise to succeed and work effectively.

The Azure API Management platform empowers developers to monitor the performance of APIs quickly and make simple tweaks early on. The software also adds an added level of security for businesses looking to protect valuable data.

In short, Azure API Management system lets you transform your APIs on the fly without any code changes.

Everything is well documented and separated, so you can find what you need. Assignments and Quizzes will make sure you stay on track and test your knowledge. The course will have a combination of theory and practical examples.
