We are delighted that Tyk has been included in the 2024 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for API management. This is the sixth consecutive year that we have been recognized in the Magic Quadrant.
We know from Gartner Peer Insights how highly customers value Tyk. Our rating of 4.7, based on 81 customer reviews, is one of the highest in the API management category. Now, the 2024 Magic Quadrant is positioning Tyk alongside the likes of Microsoft and AWS as an industry challenger.
Superior API management execution
Tyk was recognized particularly in the 2024 Magic Quadrant for the quality of our execution, which Gartner observed was a level above that of our direct competitors. Our API solution has always been focused on user-friendliness, ease of integration and seamless implementation. It is something that our global customers, such as Royal Bank of Scotland, T-Mobile, SoundCloud and Hotelbeds, certainly appreciate – and something that the latest Magic Quadrant reflects. After all, vision is nice, but when you’re feeling the pain and need to push forward to value, it’s execution that matters.
Leading market education
Tyk’s leading role in educating the market with our courses and accreditations was also highlighted in the 2024 Magic Quadrant. From API management basics to platform engineering and observability fundamentals, we are proud to be working with the API community to grow knowledge across the sector.
Powerful capabilities
What else has set Tyk alongside industry stalwarts such as Microsoft and AWS? Our host of recent capabilities speak to this. Earlier this year, Tyk went OAS native, meaning our customers can work natively with OpenAPI Specification (OAS) documents and APIs. Whether you’re designing, developing or deploying APIs, you can get there faster and more easily with Tyk.
Of course, being Tyk, we stuck to our principle of being vendor agnostic while going OAS native. Many tooling providers take your original OAS document and transform it into their proprietary API definition, locking you into their ecosystem in the process. Tyk, on the other hand, retains the original OAS document and specification; we simply append the Tyk-specific parts, making it easier for you to integrate with other tools of your choice. Like we said, we’re all about the execution.
We’ve also launched Tyk Streams this year, empowering event-driven architecture use cases. We’re helping companies find powerful new solutions to their challenges, supporting them to securely expose, manage and monetize real-time events.
The future of API management
Are we taking it easy now that the 2024 Magic Quadrant has been published? Absolutely not! We’re already looking ahead to 2025 and have plenty of innovation and upcoming releases in the works, enabling our customers to mature their capabilities using our universal API management solution.
We’ll also continue leading the market with our learning opportunities for the entire API sector. Why not check out Tyk’s courses today and see where they could take you?
