I think it's one of the best API management solutions I've used. I've previously worked with other API management tools but prefer the Amazon API Gateway. I rate it a ten out of ten.
Amazon is the number one cloud service provider in the world. I recommend the solution to others since it is a good product. The benefit that I have experienced from using the solution stems from the fact that it is a secure and reliable product to use. I rate the overall product a nine out of ten.
Opting for the cloud is a swift decision, and once made, the process proceeds smoothly. The consensus is positive, with no apparent reluctance. However, a crucial point is the necessity for expertise, particularly in AWS. Without the right proficiency, the implementation might not proceed seamlessly. Overall, I would rate it eight out of ten.

Overall, I would rate the solution a nine out of ten. There's room for enhancements. Currently, API Gateway lacks some governance features that MuleSoft offers, and there are additional features that could make it even better.
I would recommend the solution to others. You should consider using API Gateway when working with other Amazon cloud components like Amazon RD, Amazon storage, or AWS Lambda for serverless computing. It has its own value separately but API Gateway is interconnected with the broader Amazon service ecosystem. I would overall rate it an eight out of ten.
I rate the solution a ten out of ten. I advise others to use Lambda authorizer instead of API key-based authorization for more secure keys. It will help them use different tokens per customer.

My company has around three to four team members who use Amazon API Gateway, but the solution is also being used by many clients who connect to it and consume APIs. Amazon API Gateway is being used daily. I advise anyone looking into using Amazon API Gateway to go ahead and use the solution. Still, you should consider your load requirements and what you're looking for in a solution before making that decision. My rating for Amazon API Gateway is nine out of ten. I'm a customer of Amazon API Gateway.
I would rate this solution 8 out of 10. If you get used to a certain technology, you would definitely recommend it to your customer because you have experience. We recommend this technology to our customers because we are using it for other products and we have experience, and then the core learning or integration course is shorter.

It is the most recommended solution to use. What I have explored is limited. I am not sure if any other external integrations are required. To my knowledge, they already integrate with other services. We are pleased with what we have. I would definitely recommend this solution for microservices-based applications. For example, if they are using a Lambda function that is serverless, you will want to move the Lambda functions to the API gateway it is recommended. I would rate Amazon API Gateway a nine out of ten.

This is a good solution for anyone whose strategy is to run entirely on Amazon. You basically have to use another approach if that's not the case. If you have a hybrid cloud or if you are trying to be independent of the cloud, this is not a good solution for you. I would rate Amazon API Gateway an eight out of ten. It is a complete solution.

I recommend it for open banking. I would rate it 8 out of 10. To get to 10 it would It would need more support for open banking, via the open API. If your existing workloads are in AWS, then you can surely go for the AWS Amazon, AWS API gateway. If it is a hybrid solution, then I would suggest you go for WSA2. Konghybrid GCP is also good.

The advice that I would give others regarding Amazon API is that it depends on the use cases. If they have a complex environment, they need to consider different integration patterns. It could be that AWS Management is not enough for them. They would have to compliment it with another solution. It is really working in some cases, but you do need to evaluate all the requirements to choose the tool. If you are working only in the AWS context with different services or something like that, it's really useful to work with AWS Management. On a scale of one to ten I would rate Amazon API Gateway an eight.
I have heard complaints that people say this product does not have good security, but that is not true. There is an expectation that you can use it with other Amazon services to provide security, as well as other functionality. This is a great product. It has ease of use and a full breadth of functionality. I would say that the Amazon platform, in my view, is the best compared to third-party products. The only real problem is that you have to know a lot about what is outside of the API gateway in order to make the best use of it. I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

My advice to anybody who is implementing this solution is to first read the documentation and follow the steps. Make a use case, create a proof of concept, and then migrate it to production environments. It's pretty easy to use. This is a good product, but there is always room for improvement. I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

The user interface is easy enough to use. I don't really have any complaints about it. In terms of advice for implementing and using, I would say you should make sure you've got good internal skills. I would rate this solution 8 out of 10.
Amazon API Gateway is a fully managed service that makes it easy for developers to create, publish, maintain, monitor, and secure APIs at any scale. With a few clicks in the AWS Management Console, you can create an API that acts as a "front door" for applications to access data, business logic, or functionality from your back-end services, such as workloads running on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2), code running on AWS Lambda, or any Web application.
I think it's one of the best API management solutions I've used. I've previously worked with other API management tools but prefer the Amazon API Gateway. I rate it a ten out of ten.
