Enabling Continuous Integration and Delivery for Apigee

Nowadays, customers demand satisfaction in digital experiences and expect changes right away. To bring in such a fast-paced experience, organizations are adopting APIs where changes can be made within hours. However, will adopt APIs make the development cycle agile? What are the teams that are not able to deliver the APIs at the speed that is required? What if testing is manual and time-consuming or if the deployment is on hold for a few days?

This article will show how you can resolve contemporary API challenges and automate the build and deploy cycles of your Apigee with GitHub, Jenkins, Maven, and Grunt.

 Use case

Many of you might have used the EDGE UI to create API Proxy, manage developers, deploy proxies, apps, keys, products, etc. But several customers want to automate everything and do not want to do it via the UI.

 Objective

We need to devise DevOps with GitHub to manage the API Bundle, Maven, and Grunt's source to make administrative tasks on Apigee Edge and Jenkins as the continuous integration tool to start/manage those tasks.

 What is Jenkins?

Problem Statement

APIGEE Manual Deployment Challenge

Errors due to manual deployments.

Repetition of the tasks on several nodes and domains

Manual work and time essential for Configurations and policies differs across all environments.

Collaboration challenges between business and IT

No standard repository

Solution

APIGEE Deployment Automation Benefits

Improvement in productivity as work is replaced with automation.

Reduction in errors eliminates rework

An automation system must record and show what it does to improve visibility and auditability.

Automatically deploy and configure.

Process Flow

Download API bundle

Add pom file for maven

Push the project to GitHub

Deploy the project from GitHub to Apigee cloud through Jenkins

Technical Overview

Using Git and GitHub

Put the API folder on a local system

Users can create GitHub repository and push the project from local system to GitHub

Build and Deploy the API Bundle Using Maven and Jenkins

Need to create new job in the Jenkins wizard

All parameters of Apigee needs to be set here

Connect your tasks with the GitHub repository from where we need to Deploy the API

Then give Apigee URL to where it needs to be deployed

This query will take all the parameters we used above.

Successfully Deployed

Successful Deployment on Apigee

Build and Deploy the API Bundle via Grunt and Jenkins

Undeploy one revision and deploy another revision:

Create new job for Grunt

Write the query in batch command

Success in Grunt

Success in Apigee

Technology Is Not as Easy as it Sounds.

Apigee is a software based company that provides predictive & analytical software. The founders of the company were Raj Singh and Ravi Chandra. Apigee integration is a part of API(Application Programming Interface) which means procedures that create applications which further help in processing and operating the data. It helps two applications to communicate with each other. API’s has become part of the fast moving digital economy. Apigee has helped a lot of softwares in doing their task. 

Apigee is the creation and handling of proxies of API. Apigee has some following benefits:

·Advent of Automating: With the help of apigee human workload has decreased a lot and the whole work is done by computer.

·Flexible: App components can be operated by apigee. This has increased the flexibility.

·Consumption of data: Data from one application can be consumed by other application easily.

·Messenger: As said earlier that API helps in communication between the applications. It therefore acts like a messenger that receives requests from one node and then transfers the request to another node and reverts back.

·Software interface: apigee is software oriented interface and help the two softwares to communicate with each other without being intervened.

·Online surfacing easy: Although it is not a user oriented interface but it is eventually meant to make the users experience good. The most common example is online shopping. There are many social media apps that surface some online shopping stuff of another website. Apigee helps in making the interaction of the two smooth so that when the user clicks on the shopping site it automatically connects to the original website of the product.

·Promotion: Various online shopping apps are benefited by the help of apigee. These sites can link their products to some other site and people can still visit that site easily just by touching the advertisements.

·Security: The data that is shared between the applications remains safe and is not easy to hack. Other precautions for the system are also taken well care of. The language used between the two applications cannot be understood by common man. 

The apigee integration server

is a part of the new technology of Artificial Intelligence. The software is one of the best software that one can have. It is accurate most of the times. It is successful in interpreting information. The information available is interpreted and then analyzed and this whole process takes just fraction of seconds. There is a lot more about AI that people don’t know. Today’s digital life is so much perfect and fast and interpretive because of the work of Machine Learning. The data gets transferred and analyzed much before we read this whole sentence. Artificial Intelligence has made the apigee software a perfect worker for software processing. It sounds easy but it is actually really tough to manage software. There are many things that one needs to keep in mind. Just like we need to service our car after some time similarly software needs to be updated and problems need to be fixed as soon as it arises.
