Apigee Named a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Full Lifecycle API Management
October 31 2016 - 2:18PM
Apigee® (NASDAQ:APIC) today announced that Gartner, Inc. has named
Apigee a Leader in its 2016 Magic Quadrant for Full Lifecycle API
Management1 based on Apigee’s ability to execute and its
completeness of vision. According to Gartner, Magic Quadrant
Leaders “execute well against their current vision and are well
positioned for tomorrow.”2
The Gartner 2016 Magic Quadrant for Full Lifecycle API
Management is available at no charge from Apigee here.
For the second year in a row, Gartner has positioned Apigee
furthest in this research for completeness of vision, a criteria
that reflects vendors' abilities to understand market trends, to
lead and influence them, and to follow these trends with agility
and consistency.
“We are committed to helping businesses
everywhere manage APIs anywhere -- with proven, robust and scalable
API management,” said Chet Kapoor, Apigee CEO. “APIs are
foundational for today’s digital world - they connect products,
services and the cloud compute resources that power them. We are
extremely proud that once again, Apigee has been recognized by
Gartner as a Leader in this space, as well as for being furthest
for completeness of vision.”
A Gartner Magic Quadrant provides a graphical competitive
positioning of technology providers in a specific market where
market growth is high and provider differentiation is
distinct.2 The Full Lifecycle API Management Magic Quadrant
evaluated 19 different software vendors on 15 criteria.
According to Gartner: "API programs are maturing, and the API
economy is growing rapidly, so the need for advanced API management
functionality has become more pressing, especially for analytics,
API monetization, real/business value of APIs, ease of
implementation of digital business imperatives, IoT and advanced
security (to prevent/defend from malicious attacks to the
APIs)."
Apigee Edge is a comprehensive API management platform that
enables businesses to secure, manage, scale and analyze their APIs
and API traffic. Apigee’s web-scale and flexible platform processes
billions of API calls per week. Apigee Edge is available as a
cloud-based software-as-a-service (SaaS) and as on premises
software.
