Used as API gateway, reverse proxy, caching layer, API performance measurement tool, API authentication tool, API monetization tool, etc. We had a use case wherein we needed to monetize APIs and also need to have the analytics, and hence we chose Apigee. Apigee helps to monetize APIs, and therefore we can charge the consumers of our API. Apigee provides analytics to see the performance of API in a specified period. We also onboarded our legacy SOAP APIs to Apigee and have a REST endpoint for the same. It is nice API management platform [that] deals with most of the API concerns.
