Mashery API Services

by Kin Lane on 10/10/2010

Mashery is an API management service provider that offers an API as a Software as a Service (SaaS). You can leverage Mashery's platform to get an API planned, deployed, and into operation quickly. Mashery makes a pretty compelling buy versus build argument when planning for your API.

Mashery provides a wide array of tools in three distinct areas:

API Management building blocks like API registration, credential management, usage throttling and business rules.
Metrics and Reporting building blocks like API usage, developer activity, systems status, and real-time insights into API operations.
Community Management building blocks for blogs, wiki, general content management, change control, and forums.

Mashery is definitely the leader in this space. It has a robust set of API management features as well as a service level agreement and extensive API support portal.

Mashery also understands the API developer network to enable deeper integration of their API services.

Mashery's platform, collective experience, resources, and support makes it enticing to use them as a platform for launching and growing your API.
