Extended API Lifecycle Management
Ensure API chaos remains a thing of the past with automated and well-governed lifecycle management.

A Unified Approach to Managing Your Entire API Inventory
Unlike fragmented tools that manage APIs in isolation, ignite’s Extended Lifecycle Management provides a way to effectively manage well-governed change and reuse for all API types across a complex and diverse IT landscape. Automated versioning and lifecycle state management, audit-ready governance, dependency mapping, and environment-agnostic deployment support ensure your APIs are scalable, secure, and compliant by design.
No more tool silos. No more lifecycle gaps. Just complete visibility, control, and alignment across teams and ecosystems.
Enterprise API Governance Across the Entire Lifecycle
Developer-Friendly
Allow Engineering Teams to validate API versions against core standards as part of their existing deployment processes.
Configurable
Define governance levels and rule sets for each lifecycle state and type of API e.g. business capability REST vs legacy SOAP.
Automated
Automatically recalculate governance and apply existing metadata curation as new versions are pulled in from the deployment process.
Reportable
Compliance, reusability, zombie, and duplicate reports to show key stakeholders and regulators your inventory is secure and high-quality.
Ensure Proper Change Management at Scale
Across the platform, ignite makes it simple to understand the impact of changes. Leverage lineage at the API and Application level and complete consumption tracking to ensure no outages to production services and prevent bad experiences for your API consumers.
Impact Analysis
Ensure change and new versions don’t cause outages to production services and poor consumer experiences.
Standardized & Consistent
Define and manage consistent versioning, lifecycle state change, and deployments from the catalog.
Full Lineage
Manage relationships and dependencies at both the API and Application level as changes are made.
API Versioning
Deliver and track updated versions of your APIs across every stage of their lifecycle from a single, central Design.
Audit History and Logging
Keep track of and provide visibility into the way your entire catalog and API inventory is maturing over time.
One Holistic Catalog to capture, organize, and leverage all of your APIs across all runtimes
