Features
Using Gemini Code Assist in Apigee API Management
Create consistent quality APIs without any specialized expertise. Now generally available, Gemini Code Assist in Apigee leverages your organization's API ecosystem through API hub to provide uniquely tailored assistance. Generate OpenAPI specifications from natural language in both Cloud Code and now Gemini Chat with @mention functionality. Benefit from improved Enterprise Context with nested object support and proactive duplicate API prevention. You can further slash development time by generating mock servers for parallel development and collaborate through seamless publishing to API hub. Gemini Code Assist in Apigee is available as part of the Gemini Code Assist Enterprise subscription.
Universal catalog for your APIs
Consolidate API specifications—built or deployed anywhere—into API hub. Built on open standards, API hub is a universal catalog that allows developers to access APIs and govern them to a consistent quality. Using autogenerated recommendations provided by Gemini, you can create assets like API proxies, integrations, or even plugin extensions that can be deployed to Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform or ChatGPT.
Automated API Security with ML based abuse detection
Advanced API Security detects undocumented and unmanaged APIs linked to Google Cloud L7 Load Balancers. Advanced API Security also regularly assesses managed APIs, surfaces API proxies that do not meet security standards, and provides recommended actions when issues are detected. ML-powered dashboards accurately identify critical API abuses by finding patterns within the large number of bot alerts, reducing the time to act on important incidents.
High-performance API proxies
Orchestrate and manage traffic for demanding applications with unparalleled control and reliability. Apigee supports styles like REST, gRPC, SOAP, and GraphQL, providing flexibility to implement any architecture. Using Apigee, you can also proxy internal microservices managed in a service mesh as REST APIs to enhance security.
Hybrid/multicloud deployments
Achieve the architectural freedom to deploy your APIs anywhere—in your own data center or public cloud of your choice—by configuring Apigee hybrid. Host and manage containerized runtime services in your own Kubernetes cluster for greater agility and interoperability while managing APIs consistently with Apigee.
Traffic management and control policies
Apigee uses policies on API proxies to program API behavior without writing any code. Policies provided by Apigee allow you to add common functionality like security, rate limiting, transformation, and mediation. You can configure from a robust set of 50+ policies to gain control on behavior, traffic, security, and QoS of every API. You can even write custom scripts and code (such as JavaScript applications) to extend API functionality.
Developer portals integrated into API life cycle
Bundle individual APIs or resources into API products—a logical unit that can address a specific use case for a developer. Publish these API products in out-of-the-box integrated developer portals or customized experiences built on Drupal. Drive adoption of your API products with easy onboarding of partners/developers, secure access to your APIs, and engaging experiences without any administrative overhead.
Built-in and custom API analytics dashboards
Use built-in dashboards to investigate spikes, improve performance, and identify improvement opportunities by analyzing critical information from your API traffic. Build custom dashboards to analyze API quality and developer engagement to make informed decisions.
Near real-time API monitoring
Investigate every detail of your API transaction within the console or in any distributed tracing solution by debugging an API proxy flow. Isolate problem areas quickly by monitoring their performance or latency. Use Advanced API Operations to identify anomalous traffic patterns and get notified on unpredictable behaviors without any alert fatigue or overheads.
API monetization
Create rate plans for your API products to monetize your API channels. Implementing business models of any complexity by configuring billing, payment model, or revenue share with granular details.

Cloud-first application development
Use APIs to build modern applications and architectures
Use APIs to build modern applications and architectures
Build API proxies that enable your applications to access data and functionality from your Google Cloud back end or any system, service, or application. Scale your applications based on demand using load balancing for your APIs. As you scale, you can unlock greater business agility by decoupling your monolithic application into microservices.

Uniform hybrid or multicloud operations
Operate in any environment with consistency
Operate in any environment with consistency
Use APIs to expose services that are distributed across any environment—private data centers or public clouds. With Apigee hybrid, you can host containerized runtime services in your own K8S cluster to blend your legacy and existing systems with ease. This way, you can adhere to compliance and governance requirements—while maintaining consistent control over your APIs and the data they expose.

Implement security in multiple layers with advanced controls
Security is top priority today. Google Cloud launched WAAP (Web App and API Protection) based on the same technology Google uses to protect its public-facing services against vulnerabilities, DDoS attacks, fraudulent bot activity, and API-targeted threats. It combines three solutions (Apigee, Cloud Armor, and reCAPTCHA Enterprise) to provide comprehensive protection against threats.
