Ask Slashdot: Best API Management System?

Posted by Soulskill on from the notepad-and-lots-of-coffee dept.

An anonymous reader writes: I've landed a summer internship with a software firm that has a library of APIs available to current and potential customers. One of my team's tasks is to make recommendations on how to improve the developer portal, which not only provides a testing sandbox and documentation, but is also a source of sales leads for the company's business units. Mashery was the original choice for this task, but there are some limitations: some types of customers don't need to see all of the API in the library, and different business units have different goals for this developer platform when it comes to sales and marketing. What solutions work best to provide scaleable, customizable access?

    Well, obviously any API management system needs a "share" button at the bottom of each screen so you can share your favorite API methods with your friends on Twitter, Facebook and Google+.
