  • 1.  SLM Policy implement into APIC connect

    Posted 7 days ago

    Hi Teams,

    I have created an SLM policy to validate throttling behavior and now need to apply it to the API configured in API Connect. Please guide me on how to use this SLM policy within the API.

    Can you provide some more details? I assume you created an slm policy on datapower, how did you package it, ...

    other thing to look at, can't your requirement be met via de build in rate limiting? (https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/api-connect/software/10.0.x_cd?topic=connect-understanding-rate-limits-apis-plans)

    Hi Jeroen Willems

    My scenario is that I want to apply rate limits without using the client ID. I want to apply it against the id in the request payload. For example, id = 1 and clientName = xyz → apply rate limit: 1 day, 1000 calls. Another case: id = 1 but clientName = abc → apply rate limit: 1 day, 2000 calls.

    I assume you can get this custom functionality working via a custom preflow policy, but will take some time and clear specs. and I wouldn't advise it ;-)

    To implement an SLM (Service Level Management) policy in an APIC Connect, you need to define service-level objectives such as response time, availability, and throughput, then attach these policies to the relevant APIs or plans. APIC Connect allows you to monitor API performance using built-in analytics and enforce limits, alerts, and throttling to ensure SLAs are met. Once configured, the SLM policy continuously tracks metrics and helps maintain consistent service quality across all connected APIs.☺️
