Mahaboob Pasha - PeerSpot reviewer
Secure and simplify API management with effective deployment options
In our organization, we use Oracle API Platform Cloud Service primarily to host and manage our middleware APIs. Our middleware APIs are registered on this platform and exposed to a fixed domain, which supports our organizational goals effectively Since our enterprise has many APIs, Oracle API…
AftabAlam - PeerSpot reviewer
Trust and reliability have been established with long-term usage and significant integration benefits
TIBCO Cloud API Management offers API management plus the ability to orchestrate all inbound and outbound API calls. When an API is exposed to the external system, it functions as a single integration. Behind the scenes, you can perform extensive API modeling, aggregation, and downstream systems can have more than one API and give the response back to a single API call. It has many features such as orchestration rule engine, which makes it quite good. TIBCO Cloud API Management has brought numerous benefits for our organization, especially in product maturity and support. Sales and support are strong areas, and I think it is very good. If they do not get the right support, then they should consider other options. The sales and support also provides cost optimization.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"The security mode and the deployment process are significant assets, offering simplified deployment and effective troubleshooting options, including Docker support."
"The solution is stable."
"Oracle API Platform Cloud Service's UI is quite user-friendly and supports a hybrid deployment model."
"Oracle's APIP CS is a platform capable for consistently covering the complete API Lifecycle from design to retirement, supporting an API-first approach."
"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."
"I find the customizable dashboards convenient. When you have a privatized dashboard, it's easy to log in, get an immediate snapshot of what's happening, and quickly address any problems."
"Conversion to RESTful and SOAP protocols and management console (can manage individually throttled settings to manage our service levels for customers)."
"It has something called packages. In that way, it's good because we have some pre-built packages. So, if you want to onboard different APIs, we can just add them to the package, and it's there."
"This has provided a new stream of traffic and exposure of our catalogue beyond the normal web store offering."
"The most valuable aspect of Mashery is its stability."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to have different packages based on the API keys. The same core system can have different packages based on different environments."
"Very few outages or SLA issues."
"TIBCO Cloud API Management has brought numerous benefits for our organization, especially in product maturity and support."
"The platform's most valuable features are its capabilities to support security measures such as tokenization, token refresh, throttling, and enforcement of payloads."
 

Cons

"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."
"In future updates, we might be interested to see more enhancements after exploring the existing features over the next year."
"In the next release, I would like to see more security policies and for it to include an on-cloud gateway."
"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."
"Oracle API Platform Cloud Service provides an API documentation tool, which is quite outdated."
"Even when an API is functioning correctly, there seems to be a glitch within OCI (Oracle Cloud Infrastructure)."
"It's not that user-friendly, and security-wise when you try to implement the security layer on top of it, it's not that easy either."
"Monetization is not that great in API management. You need customization. Improvements are needed with sandbox local as well as with monetization. Those features are missing."
"There are some areas for improvement in TIBCO Cloud API Management, especially regarding network protocols such as SMPP, SMTP, GVI, SVI, and Diameter which could show performance issues in terms of handling and connection management pooling efficiency."
"Policy management has been a bit of a concern."
"We observed delays under heavy load conditions, and without proper tuning, changes could take an extended period to filter and become effective."
"It lacks many features at the API gateway compared to other solutions."
"TIBCO Cloud API Management should improve its installation and make it easy."
"The way agile life cycle is working needs improvement. I also want to see more support for open API standards. I want to see some improvement on the protocol transformation. That is quite missing now. These are the three main issues."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive to scale."
"Pricing depends on the specific services used."
"Oracle API Platform Cloud Service is a cheap solution."
"The pricing is for each logical gateway (a logical gateway can have multiple physical nodes)."
"TIBCO Cloud API Management is not an expensive solution."
"Licensing is quite flexible."
"We have secured terms on which we have been happy to renew for a number of years."
"Its price is pretty reasonable. There are some lightweight API options available in the market, but given the feature set that TIBCO provides, its price is really reasonable."
