We performed a comparison between Microsoft Azure API Management and Oracle API Management based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Google, Amazon Web Services (AWS) and others in API Management."The API management and the hosting of the API platform are great."
"API Management does not take long to deploy."
"The tool's most valuable feature is the integration of CI/CD with the API gateway."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Azure API Management is the developer portal because it's very quick and easy to get something published."
"I like the support they provide for the APIs more than the solution itself. First of all, documentation-wise, both Microsoft Azure and even Google Cloud are up there. But in comparison, the real-time consulting and support for APIs make Microsoft stand out a little. I also like the performance. Standard public cloud provider-built APIs are more resilient and flexible in terms of what feature you want to use and what feature you don't want to use, and they're more customizable. They are more resilient in terms of performance in that particular environment because that is the design aspect of the offering. When public clouds build APIs and deploy them after testing them on their framework for a certain amount of time, I feel there is a massive difference in the product's performance. On the interface, everything is strong."
"The solution is quite stable. We have no issues with it. there have been no crashes and we haven't experienced bugs or glitches. It's been quite reliable."
"The most valuable feature is the developer portal, which has source code examples in various programming languages to help developers learn the API."
"I like that security features can be integrated with API Management. I also like that you can perform rate-limiting and throttling functions."
"The most valuable features for us are security and centralization."
"The security, the authentication, and the publishing qualities are great."
"The initial setup isn't overly difficult."
"It is very secure, easy to manage, and easy to configure. It is a web-based API. Moreover, we get direct support from Oracle guys."
"It would be better if it were easier to transition to Azure from JIRA. For example, different nomenclature must be performed when you shift to Azure from JIRA. JIRA's storage, tasks, and ethics are treated differently from Azure. Here they might become functions, which is not an option in JIRA because that nomenclature difference is there. If someone has to get into the nomenclature, then there can be different tasks from clients, and here, they may be treated as functions. JIRA has sub-tasks, but sub-tasks don't exist in Azure. The nomenclature and the linking between ethics and a function and a story are different, and people may have to learn to adapt to the new nomenclature."
"Microsoft Azure API Management could improve by having better integration with third-party solutions."
"From my understanding, there are some constraints around governance and service-to-service intercommunication managing priorities and our own governance."
"Performance issues from this platform need to be sorted out."
"The portal where we publish the APIs could be improved. Maybe this is because we didn't configure it. It is quite easy to bypass API management because we have a lot of information shared on the portal, where we publish our APIs. I worry there is potential for a security breach in the API publishing. There needs to be more security available on terms of the way we publish them."
"API Management's price could be lower."
"The developer portal can be improved."
"The solution’s security and performance could be improved."
"From an administration and developer point of view, the user interface and user experience are not great."
"Before gaining experience with the product, I found that it was not simple to use and things took longer to do than I had anticipated."
"Oracle should actively seek feedback and tailor the approach to client needs. It shouldn't always be about pushing additional products."
"We'd like it if they could reduce the cost without sacrificing on features."
