The Company
Apigee is a company that produces and sells an API Management Platform. The central product is an API communications gateway (Apigee Edge), and there is also the backend-as-a-service App Services thing, which is a REST-accessible JSON store. Use this tag for questions about Apigee products; and also indicate the Apigee product such as API Dashboard or Edge.
Apigee Edge
Think of this as a transparent HTTP proxy server for API calls. Operators can configure the Gateway to do "anything" when an incoming API call is received, including dynamic routing, data transformation, security mediation (authentication or authorization), rate limiting or quota enforcement, caching, response data masking, response data augmentation, and more.
App Services
App Services is the commercial version of the usergrid open-source project. To a developer, it looks like a JSON store of arbitrary scale. It's accessible via a REST interface, GET/PUT/POST/DELETE, and includes a built-in set of resources, accessible via different /paths in the URL, to store things like users, activities, and so on. You can define additional resource types as extensions to that base model.
