# Software Development - API Management

> Self-hosted API management platforms and tools

[API management](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/API_management) is the process of creating and publishing [application programming interfaces (APIs)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/API), enforcing their usage policies, controlling access, nurturing the subscriber community, collecting and analyzing usage statistics, and reporting on performance.
