Apigee, the API company, today launched the next generation of its leading API platform, which makes the full power of its enterprise-grade API management services available to anyone. The Apigee API platform features new self-service access -- offered at no cost up to 3.5 million API calls per month -- to its complete, expanded set of services for building, managing and driving ongoing business value from APIs and the apps built on them. With Apigee, any organization can now participate in the exploding app economy, where mobile apps are increasingly driving communication, connection and e-commerce.

"We've worked with some of the largest businesses in the world to build and support highly sophisticated and complex systems that easily handle billions of APIcalls per day. We've now taken this technology and simplified it so that any organization, from a developer in a garage to a Fortune 50 company, can launch like a startup and scale like an enterprise," said Chet Kapoor, Apigee CEO. "Apps are quickly changing the way we all interact and do business—and APIs bring apps to life with rich streams of data and Web services. We are confident that the Apigee API platform will dramatically accelerate the growth of the app economy."

The new Apigee API Platform comprises a comprehensive range of integrated services for building, delivering and driving ongoing business value from APIs and the apps built on them. Featuring risk-free, self-service access and unlimited scaling, Apigee supports businesses at every stage in their API initiative -- from pilot projects to massive infrastructures with billions of API calls every day.

"Apigee is redefining API management to include the entire API and app lifecycle," explained Michele Turner, CMO at mBlox. "mBlox has been working with the next generation of the Apigee platform to bring our enterprise-grade messaging, push notification and geolocation APIs to a broader range of customers. Apigee's new platform is an extremelyrobust enterprise solution that we can configure ourselves, reducing our time to market."

The four key capabilities available on the new Apigee API platform include:

With easy-to-use self-service tools, businesses can create powerful, customized API-based products for developers, partners and employees.

Developer Channel Services: for creating a developer community around APIs and apps. Apigee delivers everything customers need to create a powerful developer on-boarding experience and create an engaging developer community. With Apigee's Developer Channel Services, organizations can quickly launch a developer portal with unique features such as API consoles.
