Tyk Cloud vs WSO2: What are the differences?

Developers describe Tyk Cloud as "Open Source API Management". Tyk is a lightweight, open source API Gateway and enables you to control who accesses your API, when they access it and how they access it. Tyk will also record detailed analytics on how your users are interacting with your API and when things go wrong. On the other hand, WSO2 is detailed as "A comprehensive middleware platform that is open source with no gimmicks". It delivers the only complete open source middleware platform. With its revolutionary componentized design, it is also the only open source platform-as-a-service for private and public clouds available today. With it, seamless migration and integration between servers, private clouds, and public clouds is now a reality.

Tyk Cloud and WSO2 belong to "API Tools" category of the tech stack.

Some of the features offered by Tyk Cloud are:

  • API Management Dashboard
  • API Analytics

On the other hand, WSO2 provides the following key features:
