Azure API Management Masterclass

Note that this course doesn't require any prior experience on API, API Gateway or Azure. Necessary basics are covered in the course. Learn the feature-packed Microsoft Azure API Management Service with this HANDS-ON DRIVEN course. Azure API Management is Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) offering from Microsoft which provides low-code unified cloud platform for implementing API Gateway on HTTP services and managing complete lifecycle for the APIs. This course is carefully structured to make sure it provides a holistic learning journey for anyone wanting to explore the numerous configurations, functionalities and use-cases of Azure API Management Service New to Azure, Cloud or APIs? No worries. - Curated for everyone - beginners & experienced - Covers the necessary Cloud and API fundamentals in dedicated sections - Explore Azure APIM essential concepts and features, then organically dive into advanced features and implementations with subsequent sections Familiar with Azure and/or APIs but not with API Management? Somewhat familiar with API Management? GOOD ! - Now explore with me all the flavours of this feature-packed API Management Service. - Go from Beginner/Intermediate to EXPERT! To make our APIM Service Implementation and Architecture robust, we'll implement various solutions using other tools and services. So join me to implement API Management and also explore some other related services along the way: - App Registrations, OAuth2 Flows and Azure AD (Microsoft Entra ID) for delegated authentication and security - Azure Application Gateway, Front Door, Private Endpoint, VNets, NSGs for APIM Networking - GitHub Actions for APIOps Implementation - Docker Containers and AKS (Azure Kubernetes Service) for deploying Self-hosted Gateway - Azure Management REST API for Operations e.g. backup, restore & recovery options - Azure Key Vault, Managed Identity, Custom Domains, DNS, Blob Storage, VMs etc. Microsoft Azure is fastest growing major Cloud Platform and this API Management offering is one of the most popular and widely used API Management Solution for a variety of IT organizations. I've created this course out of my passion for teaching & technology. Having spent 14 years working in Enterprize Integration and all its flavours (APIs, ETL, EDI, Streaming etc), this service seemed like a good starting point to bring to you some crucial aspects of what I've learnt from project implementations in both Integration and Cloud. I am confident that this practical guide would help tremendously whether your goal is just learning or whether you want to implement the service in your own organization.
