LDAP, and XML encryption and digital signatures. To offer a functionally rich experience to mobile app developers, APIs must also provide support for additional security standards such as OAuth and OpenID.
Akana’s API Management solution for DataPower provides customers secure APIs using enterprise security patterns they already use today for their internal DataPower services, and support for additional standards like OAuth, OpenID and HTTP basic authentication. The platform provides a comprehensive security token server that integrates with enterprise identity and access management systems providing the latest Web and API security standards including OpenId and OAuth. With the built-in OAuth capabilities, businesses can publish and interact with secure data; provide a way for users to share private data between different applications, and allow users to approve applications to act on their behalf without sharing passwords.
Use DataPower to Integrate APIs with Internal SystemsAkana enables DataPower customers to fully leverage DataPower’s rich integration features so APIs can access the widest range of backend systems. DataPower’s rich support for mediation, transformation, and diverse protocols such as SOAP and WebSphere MQ means that through Akana’s API management solution, DataPower APIs can access the widest range of backend systems using proven DataPower patterns.
Akana’s API management solution lets DataPower APIs leverage powerful orchestration features so that APIs can use DataPower to perform a variety of enterprise integration tasks as part of their implementation. This results in APIs that go beyond proxying backend REST or SOAP services by transforming, mediating, and integrating with existing

large scale backend systems, all without requiring new service development or re-configuring existing backend systems.
Automate the Full DataPower API LifecycleAkana’s API management solution goes beyond the runtime aspects of APIs by automating the full DataPower service lifecycle. By automating every step of the service lifecycle, Akana ensures that a DataPower customer’s API program is both cost effective and comprehensive.
An effective DataPower API requires automated support for every phase of the service lifecycle: plan, build, run, and share. By offering full lifecycle support, customers know which APIs to build. They use the right development tools and processes to build them, have the right management tools to run them, and leverage developer portals to share them with a community of API and app developers.
By offering full lifecycle automation, Akana’s API management solution for DataPower replaces slow and expensive manual service lifecycle procedures with highly scalable, efficient, workflow driven processes that increase agility and decrease cost. Akana’s API management solution extends this automation to DataPower itself, to ensure that APIs that are efficiently planned and built can be effectively deployed and run on DataPower clusters with no manual processes in a highly repeatable, scalable fashion.
