Currently Apigee on prem - wanted to move out of on prem - what are our options?

The latest Apigee options to move out of your on-prem environment are:

  • Apigee X: both control plane and runtime planes run fully managed on Google Cloud. This is simplest and lowest TCO if you can go this path.
  • Apigee Hybrid: control plane runs on Google Cloud, runtime planes run anywhere you can run Anthos (now “Google Kubernetes Engine Enterprise”) which could be Google, AWS, on-prem, etc. A bit more complex, but a solid solution if you have a “complicated” cloud strategy at your company.

(Apigee Hybrid is also your answer to your second question, if you need to run on AWS, the runtime planes will run there)

There are variety of migration paths. Best bet is to ask your Apigee account team (or reselling partner?), they can help guide to the right solution and migration process. Do you know how to find them or can I help hunt them down for you?
