CentraSite is a standards-based registry and repository that provides the infrastructure you need for the design-time aspects and lifecycle governance of APIs using Mediator.
CentraSite enables you to control design-time events such as the acceptance of new assets into the registry and the modification of existing assets in the registry through policies. For example, you could define a policy that new APIs submitted to the catalog must be approved by specific people. You can also use policies to define review and approval processes, perform quality assurance tests, and issue notifications when new APIs are added or when existing APIs are about to be modified. CentraSite provides full support for versioning of SOAP and REST APIs and all other assets in the repository.
CentraSite enables you to define security, audit logging, service level agreement (SLA) monitoring, and routing policies that control the use of APIs in the registry. Policies specify actions the mediation layer is to perform when a client application requests an API. For example, actions can prevent unauthorized access to an API, route a request to the appropriate API, record events to a logging system, or monitor performance attributes and send alerts when specified thresholds are exceeded.
