Fast, flexible platform to design, secure, and monitor APIs
A lightweight, high‑performance solution for registering, securing, documenting, and analyzing APIs with a customizable portal and extensive policy library.
Gravitee API Management (Gravitee APIM) is aimed at development teams and enterprises that need full control over their API lifecycle. It offers a web‑based console for administrators, a developer portal for publishing APIs, and a powerful gateway that enforces security, rate‑limits, and transformation policies.
The platform ships with over 50 pre‑built policies, a searchable portal with theming options, and built‑in analytics dashboards. Users can register applications, define secured plans, and integrate external monitoring tools such as Grafana or Kibana. An enterprise license unlocks additional features via a simple environment variable or license file.
Gravitee APIM can be run on‑premises using Docker Compose, Helm charts for Kubernetes, or tried instantly via the Gravitee Cloud SaaS offering with a free trial. The quick‑setup includes a MongoDB instance and exposes the portal (4100), console (8084), gateway (8082), and backend (8083) ports. Documentation, community links, and contribution guidelines are available on the official website.
