In this episode Chris Risner is joined by Vlad Vinogradsky, Principal Program Manager on the Azure API Management Team. Vlad joins us to talk about some of the latest features in the Azure API Management service. Azure API Management allows you to administer your APIs programmatically and publish back-end services as well managed, well controlled APIs. Today, Vlad introduces the new features in the Premium offering of Azure Management API, including an ability to deploy proxies in multiple regions, support for VPNs, and integration with Azure Active Directory. Also featured is the new Policy Expressions capability, which allows you to dynamically configure management policies for your APIs. This allows you to centralize your policies rather than spreading them across several backends. You can also augment these policies with snippets of C#, putting even more power into your hands.
