MuleSoft's API Manager works - but it comes with overhead most teams don't need.
MuleSoft API Manager policies require the API Gateway or Flex Gateway. That's additional licensing, infrastructure, and vCores just to enforce a CORS header.
Without a gateway, adding policies means editing every app manually - adding modules, configuring XML, testing, redeploying. Multiply that by 50 apps.
Each developer implements policies differently. There's no single place to see which apps have CORS, auth, or rate limiting applied across environments.
Need JWT validation on 20 APIs by Friday? With manual changes, that's a sprint's worth of work. With a gateway, it's a procurement cycle.
Intelligent code injection. Select your apps, pick your policies, click Apply.
Qflex-APIM auto-discovers all apps across all environments using Anypoint Platform APIs.
Select which policies to apply via the web UI - CORS, JWT, Basic Auth, Client-ID, Circuit Breaker, or Property Updater.
APIM extracts the app source, identifies injection points, inserts policy code, and redeploys - automatically.
Your app restarts with the policy active. No manual code changes. No gateway required. Roll back anytime.
Security and resilience policies injected into your apps with zero code changes.
🌐
Enable cross-origin resource sharing with configurable allowed origins, methods, and headers. Essential for any API consumed by browsers.
🔑
Validate JSON Web Tokens with configurable issuers, audiences, and signing keys. Secure your APIs with industry-standard token authentication.
🔒
Add username/password authentication to any API endpoint. Simple, effective, and configured through the UI - not hardcoded.
💳
Ensure only authorized clients can access your APIs. Manage client credentials centrally and enforce them across all environments.
⚡
Protect your APIs from cascading failures. Configurable error thresholds and wait times automatically trip the breaker and restore when healthy.
⚙️
Update YAML or Java properties across deployed apps without rewriting code. Change configs, toggle features, update endpoints - all from the UI.
Start free. Upgrade when your team needs more.
Qflex-APIM uses the Anypoint Platform APIs to download your app's JAR, identifies the correct injection points in the Mule XML, inserts the policy configuration, and redeploys. The original artifact is preserved so you can always roll back. No changes are made to your source repo.
It's an alternative for teams that don't need the full API Gateway. If you just need to enforce policies (CORS, auth, rate limiting), Qflex-APIM does it without the gateway overhead and licensing cost.
When a policy is applied, the target app is redeployed with the injected code. This causes a brief restart (same as any CloudHub redeployment). For zero-downtime, use multiple workers.
Yes. Qflex-APIM supports policy stacks - combine CORS + JWT + Circuit Breaker on the same app. Policies are processed in a defined order.
Yes. Qflex-APIM supports both CloudHub and Hybrid (on-premise) deployments. It discovers apps across both runtime types automatically.
