In their own words
Apigee API hub
Apigee API hub centralizes API information so teams can discover, assess, organize, and manage an organization's API portfolio. Catalog entries can capture versions, specifications, operations, deployments, dependencies, and lifecycle details. Search supports filters and LLM-based free-text queries across API definitions. The hub parses OpenAPI specifications into definitions and operations and can provide linting feedback on imports. It can import proxy information from Apigee and Apigee hybrid projects, with synchronization scheduled every six hours. Other supported sources include Google Cloud API Gateway, Apigee Edge, and preview plugins for AWS API Gateway and Azure API Management; custom plugins can connect on-premises or multicloud sources. VPC Service Controls can constrain ingress and egress, and instance and search-data locations can be selected during provisioning. Advanced API Security is an additional add-on for risk assessment across multiple Apigee organizations, environments, and gateways, with some features excluded in multi-gateway use. The dashboard requires at least five registered APIs. Eligible Apigee organizations in supported regions can use it at no additional cost; pricing is also listed from $13, with a 60-day trial.
