Enabling CORS on Azure APIM

Before we start on How to enable CORS in Azure API management service, let’s discuss the Azure APIM briefly –

What is Azure API Management?

Azure API Management is a comprehensive platform provided by Microsoft Azure that allows organizations to create, publish, secure, and analyze APIs. Whether you’re exposing APIs to external developers or managing internal APIs within your organization, Azure APIM simplifies the process and offers a range of features to ensure your APIs are both accessible and secure.

Key Features of Azure APIM:

1. API Gateway: Azure APIM acts as a gateway between your APIs and consumers. It handles requests, routing, and caching, improving API performance and reliability.

2. Security and Authentication: Secure your APIs with authentication, authorization, and OAuth support. Set up rate limiting and IP filtering to protect against abuse.

3. Developer Portal: Provide a developer-friendly portal where external developers can discover and consume your APIs. Publish documentation, code samples, and interactive API testing tools.

The 7 Core Elements of an Internal Developer Platform

Delve into the pivotal aspects of IDP and DevOps integration. Also, explore the fundamental components that constitute the bedrock of an Internal Developer Platform.

In the ever-accelerating world of software development, the need for agile and efficient workflows has never been more crucial. As organizations strive to stay ahead in this digital era, they are increasingly turning to Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs) as a key strategy to supercharge their development processes. 

Scaling with Internal Developer Platforms contributes to faster delivery, improved ROI, reduced time to market and improved business growth. An IDP is a comprehensive ecosystem of tools, services and best practices meticulously designed to empower developers, streamline workflows and expedite the delivery of software products.

In this blog, we embark on an exploration of the fundamental components that constitute the bedrock of an Internal Developer Platform – the seven core elements that drive innovation, collaboration and efficiency in the realm of software development. 

From self-service infrastructure to robust security measures, these elements are the building blocks of modern software development excellence. Join us on this journey as we delve into the pivotal aspects of IDP and DevOps integration. Discover how IDP and Microservices development is revolutionizing how software is created, delivered and maintained in the digital age.

Unpacking Our Findings From Assessing Numerous Infrastructures – Part 2

When superior performance comes at a higher price tag, innovation makes it accessible. Quite evident from the way AWS has been evolving its services –

  •  gp3, the successor of gp2 volumes – Offers the same durability, supported volume size, max IOPS per volume, and max IOPS per instance. The main difference between gp2 and gp3 is gp3’s decoupling of IOPS, throughput, and volume size. This flexibility to configure each piece independently – is where the savings come in.
  • AWS Graviton3 processors – Offers 25% better computing, double the floating-point, and improved cryptographic performance compared to its predecessors. It’s 3x faster than Graviton 2 and supports DDR5 memory, providing 50% more bandwidth than DDR4 (Graviton 2). 

To be better at assessing your core infrastructure needs, knowing the AWS services is just half the battle. In my previous blog, I’ve discussed numerous areas where engineering teams often falter. Do give it a read! >>> Unpacking Our Findings From Assessing Numerous Infrastructures – Part 1

What we’ll be discussing here are –

  • Are your systems truly reliable?
  • How do you respond to a security incident?
  • How do you reduce defects, ease remediation, and improve flow into production? (Operational Excellence)
