APIs are a core building block of cloud-native microservice application development—but managing and securing APIs scattered across distributed architectures is a major challenge. By centralizing API management and gateway services, you can safely scale across platforms and development environments to deliver responsive and reliable user experiences. Here’s how F5 can help.
Protection against common and advanced API-specific vulnerabilities that API gateways can’t deliver. F5 provides cloud-native API management, high-performance API gateways, and security controls all in one solution, reducing tool sprawl and architectural complexity.
F5 enables DevOps to automatically discover and secure new APIs as developers deploy, reducing friction and risk. You can seamlessly integrate F5 services into virtually any deployment design or architecture—edge proxy, Kubernetes, Ingress gateways, serverless, and more, giving your operational teams the flexibility to create a common architecture across providers.
Security, automation, and configuration management as agile as your DevOps teams, speeding up time-to-market at a reduced cost. Integrate infrastructure-as-code along with API security and management for a complete deployment solution your ops teams can rely on in any cloud or container environment.

APIs are quickly moving to the top of the list of application threat vectors. Lack of consistent API management integrations among developers and platform ops teams, which can be further constrained by inadequate security controls, creates unneeded complexity and hidden risk for your organization and your customers. Building and managing your APIs needs to be as agile as your applications.
F5 provides a comprehensive solution that includes API management, high-performance API gateways, and advanced security controls to create operational efficiencies. Regardless of your architecture, F5 has the right API management
From NetOps to DevOps, modern app teams need a self-service API-driven platform that integrates easily into CI/CD workflows and identity providers. Accelerate app deployments and make API lifecycle management easier with integrations to your preferred solution provider.
To reap the rewards of API-based architectures, it’s critical to recognize how they transform web applications. Read this article to find out more.
