WSO2 API Manager 3.0.0 Released!
The WSO2 API Manager team is pleased to announce the release of version 3.0.0 of WSO2 API Manager.
The WSO2 API Manager is a fully open source full lifecycle API Management product that can be deployed on-premise, available on SaaS, deployed on a private cloud or deployed in a hybrid model. It is comprised of the following components that provides all of its functionality.
WSO2 API Manager is comprised of several modules.
- API Designer and Publisher: Allows API creators to design, implement and document APIs and
allows API product managers to manage the lifecycle of APIs and create API products by using one or more APIs. - Developer Portal: A portal for on boarding application creators. It allows application creators to discover,
subscribe, test and consume APIs through their applications. - API Gateway: Allows access to APIs/services by routing application traffic to the relevant endpoints.
The API Gateway is the component that enforces security, rate-limiting and transformations on API requests while feeding valuable information of these requests to API Analytics. - Key Manager: The security token service of the API Manager which is responsible for handling everything
related to authentication and authorization of API requests. It supports a wide variety of security protocols such as OAuth2.0/OIDC, Basic Auth, API Key, SAML based single-sign-on. - Traffic Manager: Controls the traffic flow of the API gateway. This is used to apply request quotas on APIs for monetization, access control or security related matters. In addition to configuring the available policies, users can deploy their own policies on the traffic manager which will control the rate of traffic on the API gateways.
- API Analytics: Monitors all traffic that's routed through the API gateways to analyze usage patterns,
SLA violations, consumer behaviors, to provide business insights and so on.
