Migrating DataPower to IBM's API Connect Using Custom Policies//DataPower Weekly Webcast 9.15.17
- 1. Building the Foundation for Digital Innovation DataPower to API Connect Using Custom User Policies to move DP to APIC 9/15/17 1 Bryon Kataoka, CTO, iSOA Group [email protected] www.isoagroup.com (707) 773-1198 office (707) 338-2274 mobile John (JR) Nelson iSOA Group [email protected] www.isoagroup.com (707) 773-1198 office (484) 571-5838 mobile
- 2. Building the Foundation for Digital Innovation Typical Scenario Existing DataPower Implementation • Security • Routing • Transformation API Connect Implementation • Security • Routing • Transformation • Discovery (Portal) • Metrics 9/15/17 2 Portal Mgmt Runtime
- 3. Building the Foundation for Digital Innovation Customer Scenario • Customer has DataPower. In DMZ In Trusted Zone • Traffic flow Internal to External External to Internal • Security Basic Auth (both directions) Kerberos Require token switching • Organization DataPower team API/Service development teams 9/15/17 3
- 4. Building the Foundation for Digital Innovation Existing DP Lifecycle 9/15/17 4 Develop service Test service Configure DP service Apply DP security API Developer DataPower Developer Test service Test with DP service
- 5. Building the Foundation for Digital Innovation Motivations • Motivating factors Customer and iSOA built DMZ integration Framework layer on DataPower (pre-API Connect). A Robust Framework with consistent and up-to-date security interfaces Small team supporting DataPower DataPower team overwhelmed with projects (Build it and they will come) • Other motivations Take advantage of the API Connect features. API Developers didn’t understand DataPower and therefore handed off for DataPower services to be configured Improve agility and standardization 9/15/17 5
- 6. Building the Foundation for Digital Innovation GETTING STARTED Synopsis 9/15/17 6
- 7. Building the Foundation for Digital Innovation High Level Design • High Level Envision templates Identify common practices Eg. Security mechanisms Create Custom Policies Create Assembles Share YAML 9/15/17 7
- 8. Building the Foundation for Digital Innovation Custom User Policies • What are Custom User-defined Policies? Defined externally from API Connect. Could be security related Could be service related (like MQ) You create and Import into an API Connect catalog for reuse Policy becomes available in an assembly in the Assembly editor • Why we decided to use them: Added the needed additional security policies Set an established pattern for API developers to utilize Improved reuse of established patterns 9/15/17 8

- 10. Building the Foundation for Digital Innovation Assemble 9/15/17 10
- 11. Building the Foundation for Digital Innovation Advantages • Some tangible benefits: API Developers can utilize a standard template for consistency Security components can be easily implemented with minimal effort DataPower resources are no longer in critical path Improved agility to have APIs published 9/15/17 11
- 12. Building the Foundation for Digital Innovation Results of our Efforts • Standard “API Pattern” templates created and made available as OpenAPI files. • API Developers used templates and in 1 day had APIs deployed. • Time to deliver services was reduced dramatically. Bottleneck of DataPower configurations/deployments removed • Critical security requirements built into templates and configurable using properties • Reduction in DataPower support staff 9/15/17 12
