OCI API Management vs. SAP Integration Suite

Oracle API Manager is well suited in a business or company that make use of Apis to facilitate access of backend services and data sources by the staff or customers or both. It is also imported in situations where all actions in a system need to be attributed to specific users.

The case of the SAP Integration Suite shows outstanding capability in handling huge data, and especially when handling corporate portfolio data with multiple owners. But we have noticed that in the cases of moving data from the older banking system, it is necessary to further refine the system. It does an excellent job of the current credit scoring.

• Mature and Reliable. Last year, Oracle API Manager was quite buggy, and couldn't be used at production-level. Fortunately, almost all of the problems that it had previously are now patched.
• Offloads Most of the Workload of Developing APIs. While defining APIs, Oracle API Manager does a great job in providing suggestions and error checks in our logic.
• Supports SOAP and REST. Not only can you create APIs that can query for data, but you can also create API endpoints that can manipulate the data in your back-end databases.

• Broad Connectivity: SAP Integration Suite excels in connecting diverse systems, including SAP and non-SAP applications, databases, and third-party services.
• Pre-built Integrations and Templates:The suite provides a library of pre-built integrations and templates for common business scenarios.
• User-Friendly Design Tools:
• API Management:

• I would say it would be nice if it could handle non-Oracle type API's...such as in-house developed interfaces, etc.
• It would be nice if it at least could list non-Oracle type APIs so that this system became a repository for ALL of the application interfaces
• Maybe it has this and I missed it, the monitoring appears to be one API at a time, would be nice to see a page that has all of the monitored APIs with some basic monitored info perhaps. It does have alerts, audit trails, and integrates with Enterprise Manager (I did not see this integration though)

• Could be even more business friendly with programming language abstracted
• Ability to simulate the integration flow instead of a real run
• Have some kind of an AI-assistant suggesting the optimal design of an integration flow as it's being built (best practice assistant)

SAP Integration Suite is very helpful to us in many ways to manage purchase procedures, stocks, and data of vendors and suppliers. Also, it helps to manage data for service providers. SAP Integration Suite has the tool to conduct training and evaluation. Unique features like the cloud can provide access from any place and by any device is very helpful.

It is a user-friendly platform that enables fast setup for new subaccounts, launchpad and applications.

Support is hard to reach and takes a long time to get a response.

Work with an SAP implementation partner, if possible.

Oracle API Manager is much easier to learn and understand then IBM Data Power Gateway and IBM API Connect. We selected Oracle API Manager in our company because to have a good intuitive interface with drag and drop features and because beginners and easily get up to speed to use this tool.

We used to have a in house application in Camel and Karaf as a middleware, and after we migrate to S4HANNA we decide to give a try and move to the cloud with SAP Integration Suite, knowing the capabilities and the needs that we have in the company and the projects that were running on premise in our middleware.

• Overall, the client is pleased with the API Manager. They are rather new to it so the ROI has not really been realized yet
• They like the ability to monitor the API's utilization (this monitoring could maybe be used for the prior question on usage billing...they do not currently do this for their supported applications)
• They like the ability that the APIs can be secured. Just because it exists, doesn't mean it can be used just anywhere...

Incentivized

• Ability to have multiple integrations across different SAP systems or modules and be able to actively monitor in one place
• APIs already exist for the different fields in SAP products and are easy to locate
• Can set email notifications to aid with monitoring and alert business process owners of issues
