Faced challenges with audit trails and seek better user-level monitoring and control
Regarding built-in authorization, monitoring is quite substantial, and versioning systems is also what we are using. With Amazon API Gateway, we utilize a variety of deployment methods and services they provide, so monitoring services are the important parameter in API control from our side, allowing us to see how the APIs behave and how well they pick up the data from their respective sources. Integration with AWS Lambda has been beneficial since we have event controllers that help identify the APIs, which then call the API from the API services. We're managing this with events that are parameterized through API identification, mostly using Python in Lambda, which has inbuilt features to track API lifecycle parameters. The defined parameterized features in Amazon API Gateway help streamline API lifecycle management. Our AWS system admin team sets these configurations for us. The versioning number gets updated as we deploy revised API versions, which gets monitored on the API monitoring services. The cloud engineering team assists us as we are from a solutions development and deployment team. The importance of Amazon API Gateway's global API deployment for our application's performance is significant in terms of scalability and availability. Amazon API Gateway services have been very good, maintaining a 99.99 SLA, providing us confidence in the global deployment level as it is capable of handling various endpoint types, such as database sites and legacy systems.

Has required significant improvements due to limited features but offers simple implementation and good support
Boomi AtomSphere API Management has very few features. If you ask me to name the top two, I would say MuleSoft and Apigee, as it depends on the customer-to-customer use cases. After those, WSO2, Kong, and whether you say Informatica API Manager or Boomi AtomSphere API Management, they stand with only three out of ten features which are essential for API management. All the features that Apigee has, they need to add. All the features that MuleSoft has, they need to add. It is not a simple task. The problem is that they lack features. It is not their performance. There are many features to mention. When you take and compare all the features that Apigee has and all the features that MuleSoft has, they need to implement those features.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It's easy to integrate and provide support for existing AWS services if I use the AWS API gateway."
"One of the most valuable aspects of API Gateway is its native integration with AWS services."
"The most valuable feature is it has lots of integration."
"It provides the flexibility to configure, switch, and manage configurations through cloud permissions or performance settings."
"What I like best about Amazon API Gateway is that it's simple to use, easy to set up, and you can quickly get it up and running. It's a very user-friendly solution. I also didn't experience any issues in terms of Amazon API Gateway interface, integration, or monitoring. The solution runs smoothly."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"This solution is useful for making new APIs."
"The most valuable feature in Amazon API Gateway is the itinerary release."
"We can create APIs straightforwardly and quickly and build jobs for data migration."
"The user interface, which we use to create the integration, basically has the data structures collected, is pretty easy to navigate, is a drag and drop style of working, and there is very little code required so the creation of the endpoints is very simple."
"The product's stability is good."
"The stability of the solution is good."
"AtomSphere is tightly integrated into the Boomi iPaaS platform. And Boomi has been augmenting AtomSphere API Management for the past couple of years so version 2.0 is better than 1.0."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management is a good product for integrating with Boomi as a backend service."
"We can develop almost any interface that we need."
"AtomSphere API Management is a simple platform that's easy to use. If you're using it on-prem, there's a little learning curve."
 

Cons

"Its support for SAM integration could be made more accessible."
"Amazon API Gateway is not as complete as Apigee and needs to be improved by adding more features to become a more robust application."
"The product's high price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"There are certain restrictions that cannot be implemented without web access."
"The course management needs improvement. It's always an issue to set up the course management, especially when you use data form."
"API Gateway lacks some governance features that MuleSoft offers, and there are additional features that could make it even better."
"When working with XML payloads, there can be issues due to the lack of a seamless connection between API Gateway and Lambda functions."
"I believe that there could be more features associated with analytics since it is an area where the product lacks."
"Overall, I would rate AtomSphere lower than solutions like APG or API Connect."
"From an improvement perspective, the price could be cheaper."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management has very few features. If you ask me to name the top two, I would say MuleSoft and Apigee, as it depends on the customer-to-customer use cases."
"Scalability is an area where Boomi lacks."
"It's difficult to integrate the on-prem application with the Dell Boomi Cloud. We have to check to ensure the Dell domain engine is running. It just requires some service endpoints from our on-prem application to connect to Dell Boomi Cloud to make it available to integrate. It would be better if AtomSphere API Management were offered as a purely SaaS application, so I wouldn't need an on-prem component to make it available. We could make a test call or provide some connection parameters. That should enable it to pull the data."
"The product is really complex to manage."
"The solution must provide more AI services."
"To some degree, you need to know what type or amount of API you are creating - whether it's a rest API or web service API. You need to know ETL in order to really get the most out of Boomi."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We use all open-source technology."
"There are no licensing fees."
"The solution's price is reasonable."
"My understanding is that it easily goes to $14,000 or $15,000 USD each month for each account, and we have several such accounts."
"I rate the platform's pricing a five out of ten."
"The product is expensive."
"The solution's pricing is cheap and based on the number of requests coming to Amazon API Gateway."
"Azure products are more cost-effective than AWS solutions"
"The price is reasonable."
"The product can get very expensive quickly if you connect to multiple databases."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management is a cheap product."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management gives customers a good price. Price-wise, the product is good."
