Understanding WSO2 API Manager 3rd party key manager integration

WSO2 API Manager comes with a built-in key management server that is used for OAuth2 based security within the product. Sometimes, customers like to use their existing Identity Provider (IdP) as the OAuth2 key management server.

The below post explains the architecture and a reference implementation of 3rd party KM with WSO2 API Manager.

How to setup an WSO2 API manager distributed setup with a clustered gateway with WSO2 ELB

In this blog post I am going to describe about how to configure a WSO2 API Manager in a distributed setup with a clustered gateway with WSO2 ELB and the WSO2 G-REG for a distributed deployment in your production environment. Before continuing with this post, you need to download the above mentioned products from the WSO2 website. WSO2 APIM - http://wso2.com/products/api-manager/ WSO2 ELB - http://wso2.com/products/elastic-load-balancer/ Understanding the API Manager architecture API Manager uses the following four main components: Publisher Creates and publishes APIs Store Provides a user interface to search, select, and subscribe to APIs Key Manager Used for authentication, security, and key-related operations Gateway Responsible for securing, protecting, managing, and scaling API calls Here is the deployment diagram that we are going to configure. In this setup, you have 5 APIM nodes with 2 gateway...

WSO2 ESB tuning performance with threads

I have written several blog posts explaining the internal behavior of the ESB and the threads created inside ESB. With this post, I am talking about the effect of threads in the WSO2 ESB and how to tune up threads for optimal performance. You can refer [1] and [2] to understand the threads created within the ESB. [1] http://soatutorials.blogspot.com/2015/05/understanding-threads-created-in-wso2.html [2] http://wso2.com/library/articles/2012/03/importance-performance-wso2-esb-handles-nonobvious/ Within this blog post, I am discussing about the "worker threads" which are used for processing the data within the WSO2 ESB. There are 2 types of worker threads created when you start sending the requests to the server 1) Server Worker/Client Worker Threads 2) Mediator Worker (Synapse-Worker) Threads Server Worker/Client Worker Threads These set of threads will be used to process all the requests/responses coming to the ESB server. ServerWorker Threads will be used to pr...

Understanding Threads created in WSO2 ESB

WSO2 ESB is an asynchronous high performing messaging engine which uses Java NIO technology for its internal implementations. You can find more information about the implementation details about the WSO2 ESB’s high performing http transport known as Pass-Through Transport (PTT) from the links given below. [1] http://soatutorials.blogspot.com/2015/05/understanding-wso2-esb-pass-through.html [2] http://wso2.com/library/articles/2013/12/demystifying-wso2-esb-pass-through-transport-part-i/ From this tutorial, I am going to discuss about various threads created when you start the ESB and start processing requests with that. This would help you to troubleshoot critical ESB server issues with the usage of a thread dump. You can monitor the threads created by using a monitoring tool like Jconsole or java mission control (java 1.7.40 upwards). Given below is a list of important threads and their stack traces from an active ESB server. PassThroughHTTPSSender ( 1 Thread ...
