Create an API gateway and developer portal in minutes
Microsoft Azure API Management is a turnkey solution for publishing APIs to external and internal consumers. Quickly create consistent and modern API gateways for existing backend services hosted anywhere, secure and protect them from abuse and overuse, and gain insights into usage and health. Plus, automate and scale developer onboarding to help get your API program up and running in no time.
Work with any host, any API, any scale
We offer an API management platform that works the way you do. Securely connect to back end services built and running on any technology stack—it doesn’t matter if you select Azure or another service to host your APIs. API Management is available world-wide and ready to scale up and down on demand and without service interruption, handling any traffic growth or spike.
Attract more developers
A self-service developer portal offers access to an auto-generated API catalog, documentation, and code samples. Developers can sign in using existing consumer or work identities, manage access keys, view their API usage reports, and make API calls without writing a line of code via an interactive console.
Secure and optimize your APIs
Secure your APIs using a key, token, and IP filtering. Enforce flexible and fine-grained quotas and rate limits, modify the shape and behavior of your APIs using policies, and improve latency and scale your APIs with response caching.
