Unsure of how or where to get started with Azure API Management, Microsoft's managed service for securing, maintaining, and monitoring APIs? Then this guide is for you. Azure API Management integrates services like Azure Kubernetes Services (AKS), Function Apps, Logic Apps, and many others with the cloud and provides users with a single, unified, and well-structured façade in the cloud.

Mastering Azure API Management is designed to help API developers and cloud engineers learn all aspects of Azure API Management, including security and compliance. It provides a pathway for getting started and learning valuable management and administration skills. You will learn what tools you need to publish a unified API façade towards backend services, independent of where and what they run on.

You will begin with an overview of web APIs. You will learn about today's challenges and how a unified API management approach can help you address them. From there you'll dive into the key concepts of Azure API Management and be given a practical view and approach of API development in the context of Azure API Management. You'll then review different ways of integrating Azure API Management into your enterprise architecture. From there, you will learn how to optimally maintain and administer Azure API Management to secure your APIs, and learn from them, gaining valuable insights through logging and monitoring.
