With the launch of Boomi API Control Plane, enterprises can utilise a centralised platform to discover, manage, and govern all APIs across their organisations. The solution aims to aid organisations in driving business innovation, improving developer productivity, and strengthening API governance.
"APIs are the backbone of modern digital transformation, yet managing them across various platforms remains a significant challenge for many organisations. Unlike other APIM vendors, Boomi provides a federated API management approach that is truly vendor-independent, enabling organisations to utilise existing on-premises and cloud API runtimes effectively while addressing API sprawl," said Ed Macosky, chief product, and technology officer at Boomi.
Federated API management
"Organisations increasingly need federated API management to handle the complex and diverse API landscapes that span multiple environments and platforms," said Shari Lava, senior research director of AI and Automation at IDC. "A centralised, federated approach can enable consistent governance, security, and monitoring across all APIs, reducing risks and enhancing operational efficiency."

The solution aims to deliver centralised API discovery, enabling organisations to discover all APIs from a single location, control shadow APIs, and increase API consumption.
It also aims to simplify API management across gateways that aim to elevate productivity with a consistent developer experience, gain insights into API performance and usage, and extend the value of existing on-premises and cloud investments.
It also aims to strengthen API governance by ensuring consistent policies across all platforms, reducing the risk of data breaches, and streamlining security audits.
