Red Hat (3scale) Recognized as a Leader in the Magic Quadrant for Full Life Cycle API Management
Evaluation based on completeness of vision and ability to execute
RALEIGH, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Red Hat, Inc. (NYSE:RHT), the world's leading provider of open source
solutions, today announced Red Hat (3scale) has been named a Leader by
Gartner in its April 2018 Magic Quadrant for Full Life Cycle API
Management. Red
Hat (3scale) was also placed in the Leaders quadrant of the previous
version of the Magic Quadrant for Full Life Cycle API Management.
Gartner's Magic Quadrants are based on analysis of a vendor's
completeness of vision and ability to execute. According to Gartner, “It
is impossible to provide the platform for any digital strategy, build
ecosystems and run an effective API program, without full life cycle API
management.”
3scale API Management is an award-winning
platform designed to provide end-to-end application programming
interface (API) management capabilities on premise or across public,
private or hybrid cloud environments. Red Hat 3scale API Management
includes features for security management, access control, rate limits,
monetization, and rich developer experience tools, as well as robust API
performance analytics and reporting capabilities. API management
delivers one of the core elements of an agile integration methodology,
alongside distributed integration and containerization, which together
represent an innovative and powerful approach to more quickly and easily
integrate new applications and services with business data and legacy
applications.

Steven Willmott, senior director and
head of API Infrastructure, Red Hat
“The ubiquity of APIs
today not only speaks to the power of the technology to unlock critical
information spread throughout disparate systems and data, but also their
role in shifting the way organizations conduct business in the digital
era. We feel that effective API management is necessary for gaining
visibility, control, flexibility and scalability over the API
environment, and we are proud to have been named a Leader by Gartner in
back-to-back Magic Quadrants for Full Life Cycle API Management.”
