Different Gateway Deployment Options

SaaS On-Prem Hybrid

Pro’s: •  No IT Infrastructure •  Subscription Based •  Rapid Startup •  Frequent functional

Updates

Con’s: •  Less Customization •  Don’t Own Software •  Dependent on SaaS SLA

Pro’s: •  May be more customizable •  You own the software •  Greater op’s control •  Tighter key and secrets mgt

Con’s: •  Requires capital investment •  Higher operating costs •  Less frequent feature updates •  Administrative overhead

Pro’s: •  Single SaaS admin console •  Mix cloud & on-prem traffic •  Deploy to Docker containers •  Benefits of on-prem control with

the flexibility of SaaS Con’s: •  May need capital investment •  Higher operating costs •  Less frequent feature updates


• Basically, a deployment option of our SaaS API platform • Combination of SaaS and on-prem software

• On-prem software is “tethered” to Mashery SaaS

•  Functionality shared between the cloud and on-prem •  SaaS usage for policy definitions •  Mashery Local executes policies •  Seamless mix of traffic between SaaS & on-prem

• Centralized SaaS management of all gateway instances

Recommended Use Case

•  When local traffic mgt is required

•  Where IT is moving to container based environments

•  Where some API management functionality in the cloud is ok


• Can be deployed either to VM’s or Docker containers • Very lightweight compared to VM’s

• Scripts are provided to build your Docker image

• API Traffic scaling via load balancers and replicated ML

• Rapid startup of replication instances (seconds)

• Aligns well with DevOps PaaS approach • Complementary to microservices architecture

Mashery Local (ML) and Containers


• Mashery pioneered SaaS based API Management • A lot of experience with Hybrid gateways

•  Tight alignment with TIBCO Integration products •  Model, Mock, and publish APIs to Mashery •  Logical extension of microservices design/refactoring •  APIs are at the core of Integration

How Mashery is Different


Questions You Should Ask Yourself: • Do I need a full API Management solution, or just a gateway?

• Do I really need to manage API traffic on-premise?

• Do I have the resources and expertise to setup and manage an on-prem gateway?

• Do I expect to have to distribute my API programs to different geo locations or site?

•  Is a container based approach to workloads and devops tooling important to me?

Which Approach is Best for You?
