I want to establish an connection between API managment and Application Gateway in Azure. Please can someone provide step by step solution.
Azure API Management is made up of an API gateway, a management plane, and a developer portal. These components are Azure-hosted and fully managed by default. API Management is available in various tiers differing in capacity and features.
API Management (APIM) is superior to API gateway where it does all the activities of API Gateway and also do additional activities like Service dictionary, Service directory lookup, monitoring services and handle security functionalities to service invocation through SSL certificates.
Both do behave like a reverse proxy, APIM provides a policy framework to manipulate requests both inbound and outbound, along with features such as rate limiting and conditional caching. While Application Gateway has more features in terms of rewriting and manipulating traffic on an HTTP protocol stack.
What is your scenario? Generally, people set up API Management in an internal VNET and expose a small set of APIs via Application Gateway with a WAF SKU, which is an extra Web application firewall for Front.
