The Problem with Legacy Platforms like Apigee!
High operational costs
Legacy gateways like Apigee come with high setup, maintenance, and licensing costs but deliver limited ROI.
Steep learning curve
Teams rely on manual setup and configuration, making onboarding slow and error-prone.
Vendor lock-in
Rigid contracts make it hard to move APIs between gateways or adopt hybrid-cloud architectures.
No built-in marketplace
Lack of an integrated API marketplace blocks monetization and discovery opportunities.

Still Using Legacy Platforms
like Apigee? Shift to DigitalAPI Today!
Most enterprises today have outgrown Apigee. It’s heavy to operate, slow to set-up, costly to scale, and definetely not built for the era of distributed, AI-ready systems.
DigitalAPI is built for that reality. It’s offers a lightweight, intelligent API gateway that manages APIs, events (Kafka, Solace), and MCP servers seamlessly across environments. Unlike Apigee’s complex model, DigitalAPI automates governance, scales effortlessly, and provides unified analytics.
Built with an AI-native core, multi-protocol flexibility, and a developer-first experience, DigitalAPI streamlines enterprise API operations, freeing teams to deliver value instead of maintaining legacy infrastructure.
