Amplify Platform capabilities
Amplify Management Plane
Govern, secure, and monitor APIs on-premises and multiple clouds from a central location while giving development teams the freedom to use the tools that work best for them without worrying about using unsanctioned solutions.
Amplify Agents
Capture the full value of all your APIs by bringing them together for easy discovery and reuse. Agents work with API gateways – including AWS, Azure, Istio and other – without the need to rip and replace your existing systems.
Compare Amplify to other API platforms
Other providers only let you monitor and govern assets originating directly from them. But with the Amplify Platform, you're in total control of all your APIs and events across gateways, vendors, and deployments. Here’s how Amplify stacks up to others in the market.

What is universal API management?
Federated API management refers to an expanded set of capabilities beyond traditional API management. One is the ability to extend API management to other vendor gateways, deployment patterns, and repositories. Another is the ability to handle additional API patterns beyond basic SOAP and REST. This includes GraphQL, Events, Service Mesh, gRPC, and Async API to list a few.
Federated API management with the Amplify Platform employs a light-weight, non-obtrusive agent to interface to all of your diverse API data planes. Unlike a proxy approach used by other vendors, Amplify agents allow discovery, observability, and subscription without sitting in the data flow path.
There are many advantages to using a federated API management solution, most notably is the ability to curtail API sprawl and its resulting complexity. The Amplify platform enables you to:
- Unify all your API assets and manage their lifecycle regardless of pattern, deployment, or platform
- Modernize your infrastructure without having to rip and replace existing API solutions
- Monitor and manage all APIs from a single point of control
API platform teams. These teams master API complexity by operationalizing all the APIs. They also get a complete operational view along with usage and performance metrics that increase service delivery at a reduced cost.
API consumers (Innovation, digital, and application teams). With federated API management, these consumers decrease the time-to-value for APIs that drive digital business. Developers can speed delivery of initiatives by easily finding and using proven API products that are security validated, fully documented, and production ready.
Digital business leads. This group can increase ROI on APIs by enabling internal digital teams to find and reuse APIs faster, and helping external developers to adopt APIs to create new. With federated API management, digital business leads can lower the barrier to entry and drive consumption of digital business initiatives by packaging and presenting curated API products, instead of a random assortment of every single API ever produced.
