Rahul Kundu - PeerSpot reviewer
Cost-effective serverless routing with room for extended timeout settings
We are using API Gateway to route the traffic to our Lambdas. Every API pass is linked to some of the Lambdas. When traffic hits CloudFront, it redirects it to API Gateway, which then redirects it to the respective Lambda server. We have different kinds of services invoked through these Lambdas…

Enables real-time insights and secure API management for efficient customer interactions
The main improvement needed is the ability to have different base URLs for HTTP and HTTPS for different clients. Currently, I can have only one base URL for one atom. It would help if I could set up a proxy with different URLs within Boomi as a simple configuration instead of needing external applications. Also, Boomi can integrate AI to manage backend loads and provide insights into runtime engine consumption.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"This solution gives you a unified way to have your API accessed."
"It is easy to set up. It is also quick to deploy."
"It's easy to integrate and provide support for existing AWS services if I use the AWS API gateway."
"The best features of Amazon API Gateway include security and metering, which involves the analytical part of how the APIs are being consumed since it's for consumer APIs built for use by other applications."
"The solution is stable."
"The initial setup is pretty easy. Deployment only takes five minutes."
"It's flexible. It was valuable."
"It is a stable solution."
"Boomi allows for more secure URLs and easy customization of HTTP and HTTPS protocols, which I find very beneficial."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management is a good product for integrating with Boomi as a backend service."
"AtomSphere is tightly integrated into the Boomi iPaaS platform. And Boomi has been augmenting AtomSphere API Management for the past couple of years so version 2.0 is better than 1.0."
"The product's stability is good."
"We can create APIs straightforwardly and quickly and build jobs for data migration."
"AtomSphere API Management is a simple platform that's easy to use. If you're using it on-prem, there's a little learning curve."
"The stability of the solution is good."
"Integrations take less time."
 

Cons

"Amazon API Gateway is not as complete as Apigee and needs to be improved by adding more features to become a more robust application."
"A lower price would definitely be an improvement."
"There are certain restrictions that cannot be implemented without web access."
"I would say Amazon API Gateway is a bit costly, but considering the feature level, it is very good."
"Like most Amazon services, and this one's the same, you're expected to effectively do your own support, and any other support is by emails, so it's quite limited."
"It would be useful to have a more complete development environment for the developer, with different integrative capabilities to manage all the life cycles for the API. I think the full version formula for that is really useful. They should improve the development environment for easier integration."
"The API Gateway lacks the capability to directly facilitate API strategy development or user onboarding workflows."
"The user interface could be improved, as well as customer support and having a local customer representative in a country."
"To some degree, you need to know what type or amount of API you are creating - whether it's a rest API or web service API. You need to know ETL in order to really get the most out of Boomi."
"The API management has room for improvement."
"Most of the basic functionality is there in Boomi, but APG is a more feature-rich solution."
"The product is really complex to manage."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management can be improved in terms of threshold management and policy management."
"Scalability is an area where Boomi lacks."
"The solution must provide more AI services."
"From an improvement perspective, the price could be cheaper."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"My understanding is that it easily goes to $14,000 or $15,000 USD each month for each account, and we have several such accounts."
"Amazon API Gateway is a very cheaply priced product."
"There are no licensing fees."
"The solution's price is reasonable."
"It is somewhat costly, particularly when it introduces server-related features, which are often scheduled on our end."
"I am satisfied with the price."
"The pricing model for API Gateway is advantageous due to its serverless nature, as it depends on traffic volume."
"I rate the platform's pricing a five out of ten."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management is a cheap product."
"The product can get very expensive quickly if you connect to multiple databases."
"The price is reasonable."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management gives customers a good price. Price-wise, the product is good."
