  • Management of application programming interfaces for microservices of network functions
    Patent number: 12549444
    Abstract: Technologies for facilitating APIs for microservices associated with a communications network are disclosed. An example method includes receiving a request to a target API exposed by an API platform, and invoking a combination of API governance modules corresponding to the target API and selected from API governance modules implemented remotely from the API platform, to map the request to microservices. The microservices include internal microservice(s) maintained within the communications network and external microservice(s) maintained externally to the communications network. The method also includes applying API governance policies indicated by the combination of API governance modules to validate interactions with the external microservice(s) based on the request and generating and sending a response to the request.
