*Brief*

The API Product feature being developed for API Manager allows AP
Publishers to bundle a set of  APIs and expose them as a product which will
have its own set of policies that will apply all APIs that are bundled
within the product. API Consumers will have the option of subscribing to
the exposed product which will mean that they are subscribed to all APIs
within the same product.

*Rationale*

This will enable the consideration the API as a technical artifact which
will not specify any usage policies and the API Product as a business
artifact which will define what polices will be applied. This will allowing
for,

   1. Grouping of related APIs together by API Publishers
   2. Packaging the same set of APIs pared with different policies in
   different products
   3. API consumers can easily discover and subscribe to all related APIs
   at once


 *Conditions*

   1. This feature will be implemented without relying on the Governance
   Registry. Alternative means will be found for specific features that the
   registry is relied upon
   2. The current way that APIs are created and published will so this
   feature will ensure backward compatibility.
