We are using API Connect for approx. 10 months. It has been (and still is) a very stony road. We are now considering another solution.
My findings w.r.t to API Connect:
Pros:
- Concept of catalogs is useful (for us) w.r.t. dealing with several tenants.
- When it is running, it looks very stable.
Cons:
- Installation and updates were a nightmare each time. We use OpenShift; and we had problems for up to three weeks for an update, including support from IBM. We cannot afford that in production, which leads to investigations on our side.

- No debugging of the flow.
- High footprint of pods and resources, compared to an alternative.
