In this session, we depict the key challenges of deploying an API management solution and how WSO2’s API Management platform can address them by supporting API provisioning, security and analytics. We also describe the various deployment options – on-premise and in the cloud – as well as the key deployment patterns that you need to adopt.

1. Understanding the WSO2 API

2. What is an API?
• A contract between a consumer and a provider.
• Available over the network/internet.
• Used by other programmers.
• Exposed over a consistent Technology Stack
– REST over HTTP(s)
– JSON/XML
– OAuth

4. APributes of an API Pla7orm
• Adapts to surrounding environment.
• Allows building on the pla7orm’s core values to create new value
for consumers.
• Is a hub for innovaSon.
• A catalysts for growth.

5. API Gateway
Authentication
Authorization
Rate Limiting
Caching
Mediation
Routing
Feeding the Analytics
Engine

6. API Security
• AuthenScaSon - Valid OAuth 2.0 Token
• AuthorizaSon - OAuth “scope”
• Single Sign On
• Social Logins
• User Account Management

7. Advanced API Security

8. Rate LimiSng
• To protect your back-end systems/services
• Defining “quotas” to moneSze your APIs.
• Fair Usage across all ApplicaSon users
• Advanced Policies
– Rate limiSng by Geography, Device Type, etc
– BlacklisSng

9. Rate LimiSng - Architecture

10. APIs and the IntegraSon Pla7orm

11. APIs: Composing Them
• CreaSng a simple API for device specific composiSon
• PaginaSng, Filtering (making things smaller)
• Batching requests, PopulaSng a new Data Structure (making
things bigger)
• Inlining References

12. AnalyScs: Gebng Insights on your API
