Google Cloud Endpoints

Endpoints

Endpoints is an API management system that helps you secure, monitor, analyze, and set quotas on your APIs using the same infrastructure Google uses for its own APIs.

• Cloud Endpoints for OpenAPI
• Cloud Endpoints for gRPC
• Cloud Endpoints Frameworks for the App Engine standard environment

For help in deciding which option is right for you, see Choosing an Endpoints option.
