Sophisticated API runtime management paired with a smart platform that serves users the right API observability data and metrics sounds like a supremely valuable solution to API leaders and practitioners.
This is why we’re extremely excited to announce that we’ve joined forces with Traefik Labs to create a direct integration with their Traefik Hub API Gateway and API Management solutions.
“The number of APIs and their usage is skyrocketing, fuelled by the relentless need for businesses to exchange data and the rapid pace of AI-driven innovation. For many organizations, this surge translates into an increasingly complex API environment, making strategic decision-making around these APIs more challenging than ever — especially when those decisions directly impact revenue and daily operations. At Treblle, we've made it our mission to simplify these complexities for our customers. With our unified API Intelligence Platform, organizations can gain actionable insights and make data-driven decisions about their APIs in less than 60 seconds, giving them a critical competitive edge.”
Vedran, Founder & CEO at Treblle
Trafik Labs helps companies adopt and scale cloud-native architectures by providing a unified platform that reimagines application connectivity and API management, paving the way for seamless operations and enhanced productivity.
Treblle is an APIOps platform that serves key API observability metrics, while providing users with Security, Governance, API Health scores, and auto-generated API docs – ensuring your team has quality APIs.
Key Benefits of the Treblle & Traefik Integration
“While we already support over 25 programming languages and platforms, a direct gateway integration was the missing link — until now. Today, I am thrilled to announce our partnership with Traefik, a leader in API gateway space”.
This is what Treblle’s CEO said when asked to announce the Treblle & Traefik Partnership.
Treblle offers a Go-based plugin enabling Traefik users to utilize Treblle's observability and security capabilities from the Traefik Hub dashboard. This exclusive integration provides the following benefits:
- Top-Notch Observability: Gain comprehensive insights into your API's operations.
- Auto-Generated API Documentation: Automatically keep your documentation up-to-date with your API changes.
- Alerting and Notifications: Stay informed with alerts on crucial API events and changes.
We worked with the Traefik team to enhance the user experience by greatly simplifying it.
“Through this collaboration, Traefik customers can now effortlessly tap into the full power of Treblle with a seamless 1-click installation. This integration unlocks a suite of robust features, including API Observability, Security, Analytics, Governance, and Documentation, all designed to help businesses drive growth and maximize revenue.”
With this new integration, users can unlock powerful observability and log aggregation capabilities:
- Comprehensive Log Aggregation: Capture detailed logs for every API request that passes through the Traefik gateway, ensuring you have full visibility into API operations without additional setup.
- In-Depth Observability with 40+ Data Points: Gain insights into more than 40 key data points for each API request, including performance metrics, request/response details, latency, errors, and more, giving you a complete picture of your API’s health and performance.
- Simplified Setup: By integrating Treblle directly at the gateway level, you eliminate the need for SDK installations, making it easier to access crucial API traffic data and instantly enhance your observability. This comprehensive approach allows you to troubleshoot faster, optimize performance, and maintain high API standards with minimal effort.
How it Works
Setting up the Treblle and Traefik integration is designed to be quick and easy. It ensures that you get started with enhanced API observability in just a few steps. With just one click, you can enable Treblle’s features directly within the Traefik Hub dashboard, eliminating the need for manual logging infrastructure.
Prerequisites:
• A Hub API Gateway on Traefik Hub
• A Treblle account (easily created in the Traefik Hub dashboard)
• Treblle API Key and Project ID
• Treblle plugin installed for Traefik Hub API Gateway
Setup:
1. Log in to the Traefik Hub dashboard and create a new API Gateway.
2. Navigate to the Traffic Debugger section and click “Configure Treblle traffic debugger.”
3. Enter your Treblle API Key and Project ID. If you don’t have an account, create one directly within the dashboard. Your credentials will be auto-filled.
4. Select the API Gateway you want to connect to Treblle and click “Save.”
Once configured, Treblle will begin capturing and displaying API traffic data in real-time through the Traefik Hub dashboard.
