Cloud Endpoints makes it easy to develop, deploy, protect and monitor APIs. A distributed architecture and proxy using NGINX provide unparalleled performance and scalability. Cloud Endpoints provides the tools you need to develop APIs. It can be used with an OpenAPI Specification, or one of our API Frameworks. Cloud Logging, Cloud Monitoring and Cloud Trace provide insight. You can control who has access to your API, and validate each call with JSON Web Tokens or Google API keys. Integrating with Auth0 or Firebase Authentication allows you to identify users of your mobile or web application. Extensible service proxy delivers security and insight in less that 1 ms per phone call. App Engine and Google Kubernetes Engine automatically deploy your API. You can also add our proxy container for Kubernetes deployment. You can monitor key operations metrics in Google Cloud Console and gain insight into your users with Cloud Trace and Cloud Logging.
