Apigee API Management

You have data, you have services, and you want to develop new business solutions quickly, both internally and externally. With Apigee, you can build API proxies—RESTful, HTTP-based APIs that interact with your services. With easy-to-use APIs, developers can be more productive, increasing your speed to market. Apigee (Edge, X, Hybrid) provides an API proxy layer that sits between your backend services and internal or external clients that want to use your services. Apigee provides a rich array of policies that allow you to add security, traffic management, data mediation, extensions, and other features to the API proxy layer for a robust, enterprise-grade API management solution. You can also add custom code, conditional logic, fault handling, rate limiting, caching, and many other actions. Because the policies and actions are implemented on Apigee, in the API proxy layer, your underlying backend services can remain unchanged.

This is part of my professional background and gives context to how I think, learn, solve problems, and explain technical ideas.
