API access control and management
Applications can have multiple, independent API services which have different endpoints that require management. Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform includes a containerized version of the 3scale API gateway so that you can manage your APIs and control access.
3scale gives you a variety of standard options for API authentication and security, which can be used alone or in combination to issue credentials and control access: standard API keys, application ID and key pair, and OAuth 2.0.
You can restrict access to specific endpoints, methods, and services and apply access policy for groups of users. Application plans allow you to set rate limits for API usage and control traffic flow for groups of developers.
