NetScaler Next-Gen API is the newest version of NetScaler’s application programming interface (API). It enables you to programmatically configure NetScaler using an intuitive application-centric interface that abstracts away many of the low-level complexities of NetScaler configurations.
Using a declarative approach to attain the desired state for hybrid and multi-cloud application delivery, NetScaler Next-Gen API is ideal for application developers and others without advanced networking or NetScaler expertise. Because the configuration of NetScaler ADCs is automated, it frees you to focus on your applications.
KEY CAPABILITIES
What you can do with NetScaler Next-Gen API
Configure NetScaler faster
NetScaler Next-Gen API is a suite of declarative REST APIs for automating the configuration of NetScaler ADCs.
Streamline ADC configurations
NetScaler Next-Gen API streamlines configuration by using desired-state semantics, which allows the API to handle underlying configurations automatically, reducing manual steps and ensuring consistent application delivery.
Manage ADCs as code
NetScaler Next-Gen API adopts an application-centric approach, allowing you to manage ADC infrastructure as code based on application needs, eliminating the need for NetScaler-specific commands and simplifying network operations.
Provide self-service access to NetScaler
Quickly configure ADCs via self-service portals like ServiceNow to deploy infrastructure for your applications faster.
Apply policy-based enforcement and automated rollbacks
Automatically roll back any new changes by validating new configurations against the already-running configuration.
Leverage ecosystem integrations
NetScaler Next-Gen API is built on the OpenAPI 3.0 specification, enabling automatic SDK creation in various supported languages, while offering IDE plugins and developer tools to simplify daily tasks.
Do more with fewer API calls
The intuitive NetScaler Next-Gen API uses atomic and hierarchical formats to help in application delivery configuration with minimum API calls unlike the NetScaler NITRO API, which requires many API calls.
