CONSHOHOCKEN, PA — Boomi™ recently rolled out its new Boomi API Control Plane, a centralized platform designed to help enterprises manage and govern all their APIs. This launch aims to accelerate business innovation, enhance developer productivity, and strengthen API governance.
The Boomi API Control Plane builds on Boomi’s existing API Management solution by incorporating the recently acquired federated API management business from APIIDA. This integration allows users to discover all APIs, including “shadow APIs” that exist outside the control of IT departments. By bringing these shadow APIs under management, organizations can increase API use, driving efficiency and innovation.
“APIs are the backbone of modern digital transformation, yet managing them across various platforms remains a significant challenge for many organizations,” said Ed Macosky, Chief Product and Technology Officer at Boomi. He emphasized Boomi’s vendor-independent approach to federated API management, which enables organizations to use both on-premises and cloud API runtimes effectively while addressing API proliferation.
Industry analysts also highlight the growing need for such solutions. Shari Lava, Senior Research Director of AI and Automation at IDC, stated, “Organizations increasingly need federated API management to handle the complex and diverse API landscapes that span multiple environments and platforms.” According to Lava, a centralized, federated approach can offer consistent governance and security, reducing risks and improving operational efficiency.
Key features of the Boomi API Control Plane include:
- Centralized API Discovery: Enterprises can discover all APIs within their organization from a single location, bringing shadow APIs under control and increasing API consumption to drive innovation.
- Simplified API Management Across Gateways: The platform provides a consistent developer experience, insights into API performance and usage, and extends the value of existing on-premises and cloud investments.
- Strengthened API Governance: It ensures consistent policies across all platforms, reduces the risk of data breaches, and streamlines security audits, making compliance simpler and more efficient.
The Boomi API Control Plane aims to set a new standard in API management by offering an integrated, holistic solution that simplifies operations and strengthens governance while fostering innovation.
