More Oracle API Management Pros →

"The Gateways are communicating with a Management Service, which lives in the Cloud, to send usage information or to fetch changes for the deployed APIs.""The solution is stable.""Oracle API Platform Cloud Service's UI is quite user-friendly and supports a hybrid deployment model.""All API usage is now governed and tracked.""The most valuable features are the easy integration with the Oracle cloud, and that it's easy to use.""I find the customizable dashboards convenient.

"Oracle API Platform Cloud Service provides an API documentation tool, which is quite outdated.""The solution's cost in terms of scaling could be better.""I would like to see enhanced support for SOAP Service and the corresponding WS-Security policies.""In the next release, I would like to see more security policies and for it to include an on-cloud gateway.""There should be closer integration between the API Platform Cloud Service and the Identity Cloud Service to allow IDCS Applications, protecting backend systems, to be linked to the API Applications that consumers use to access APIs.""Even when an API is functioning correctly, there seems to be a glitch within OCI (Oracle Cloud Infrastructure)."
