Pros
"Amazon stack is easy to use in combination with other Amazon services, so it was a logical continuity.""What I like best about Amazon API Gateway is that it's simple to use, easy to set up, and you can quickly get it up and running. It's a very user-friendly solution. I also didn't experience any issues in terms of Amazon API Gateway interface, integration, or monitoring. The solution runs smoothly.""Integrating API Gateway with other AWS services was easy. It worked out of the box, so it worked perfectly.""The initial setup is straightforward.""It's flexible. It was valuable.""Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.""The best thing about Amazon API Gateway is that it can authenticate and authorize requests without going to our back end.""It is very helpful, with our API-based applications."

Cons
"Currently, I'm not facing any issues with Amazon API Gateway, which satisfies my requirements. I'm pretty happy with what Amazon API Gateway offers, but as its pricing is on the higher side, that's one area for improvement in the solution. What I'd like to see in the next release of Amazon API Gateway is an improvement in the status checks you get from the monitoring feature of the solution. Currently, you get the number of requests received, the number of reports, etc., but if there are more details than what's given by Amazon API Gateway, that will improve the solution.""Like most Amazon services, and this one's the same, you're expected to effectively do your own support, and any other support is by emails, so it's quite limited.""The integration could be improved.""I believe better governance and monitoring features would be beneficial.""The tool's UI requires time to understand.""Monitoring could be improved.""Since the first invocation of AWS Lambda takes more than 30 seconds because of Lambda's cold start, Amazon API Gateway blocks that resource, thereby aborting the invocation.""The product's high price is an area of concern where improvements are required."

"Oracle should actively seek feedback and tailor the approach to client needs. It shouldn't always be about pushing additional products.""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.""From an administration and developer point of view, the user interface and user experience are not great.""We'd like it if they could reduce the cost without sacrificing on features."

    Overview

    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.

    Oracle API Management enable you to streamline business and IT objectives by managing the lifecycle of your APIs, outsource application enhancement by empowering developers through API adoption, and add a mobile front to your applications and capture new revenue opportunities with seamless API enablement.
