Question:
Your company has a complex environment with APIs hosted both on-premises and in different cloud providers. You are tasked with centralizing the management of these APIs using Azure API Management, while ensuring low-latency access for local users. What actions should you take to accomplish this task?
Answer:
The Premium tier is required to deploy self-hosted gateways, which are essential for managing APIs across different environments. Self-hosted gateways are containerized versions of managed gateways, suitable for hybrid and multicloud environments.
Migrating all APIs to Azure App Service is not necessary for managing APIs across different environments.
Generating OpenAPI specifications is not directly related to managing APIs across multiple clouds and on-premises.
Configuring a VPN connection is not relevant to the scenario described.
