Who will watch the watchers? Extended infrastructure observability for WSO2 API Manager

Dynatrace

In response to this trend, open source communities birthed new companies like WSO2 (of course, industry giants like Google, IBM, Software AG, and Tibco are also competing for a piece of the API management cake). High latency or lack of responses. This increase is clearly correlated with the increased response latencies.
