More Apiary Pros →

"The solution is stable.""The most valuable features are the easy integration with the Oracle cloud, and that it's easy to use.""Oracle API Platform Cloud Service's UI is quite user-friendly and supports a hybrid deployment model.""I find the customizable dashboards convenient. When you have a privatized dashboard, it's easy to log in, get an immediate snapshot of what's happening, and quickly address any problems.""Oracle's APIP CS is a platform capable for consistently covering the complete API Lifecycle from design to retirement, supporting an API-first approach.""The Gateways are communicating with a Management Service, which lives in the Cloud, to send usage information or to fetch changes for the deployed APIs.""All API usage is now governed and tracked."

"Swagger (OpenAPI Specification) and Blueprint Support""I would like an integrated option to download a Swagger version of the definition.""The Oracle release cycle is very bad because the patches only update once a year."

More Apiary Cons →

"Oracle API Platform Cloud Service provides an API documentation tool, which is quite outdated.""The solution's cost in terms of scaling could be better.""In the next release, I would like to see more security policies and for it to include an on-cloud gateway.""I would like to see enhanced support for SOAP Service and the corresponding WS-Security policies.""There should be closer integration between the API Platform Cloud Service and the Identity Cloud Service to allow IDCS Applications, protecting backend systems, to be linked to the API Applications that consumers use to access APIs.""Even when an API is functioning correctly, there seems to be a glitch within OCI (Oracle Cloud Infrastructure)."
