Tobias Berei - Transforming diverse system landscapes into sustainable API products with Azure API Management

Well-designed, secure and fast APIs are the backbone of many successful digital products. While APIs need to fulfill specific product-related needs, developers must think of security, monitoring, versioning and many further topics for creating a long-lasting robust API. Especially when dealing with a heterogenous system landscape, the integration of different sources into a unified clean API is a key factor for enabling faster adoption by app developers while making full use of existing data.

Discover how Azure API Management revolutionizes API integration and development, being a hybrid, multicloud management platform for APIs across all environments. Learn the secrets of analytics-driven decisions, as Azure API Management delivers insightful usage metrics, error diagnostics, and latency analysis while also providing the necessary tools for versioning and lifecycle management. With just a few steps developers can easily abstract backend diversity while securely exposing services hosted inside and outside of Azure. Let’s explore how Azure API Management can help you providing a centralized platform for managing manifold aspects of your APIs.
