ArcGIS Enterprise is compatible with API manager. Also is a decoupling layer possible?

Thank you

What is "API Manager" and what level of decoupling are you looking for? In general, any tool or service that supports HTTPS and OAuth2 can connect to an Enterprise deployment and route its own commands to the appropriate portal and server resources. This page is a good starting point.

an API Management Platform, a service designed for API Management, which is the process of creating, securing, publishing, and monitoring APIs. Using this service, an organization can reduce technical complexity, quickly market solutions internally and externally, create and manage teams of API consumers, and improve API governance and security. These tools have been found to bring tangible benefits to businesses.

for the decoupling layer i found this link that explains it. sorry but these two topics are new for me too

Ah, this is the product you're looking at. Seems like you would combine these instructions for adding an API with whatever components of the ArcGIS REST API you need to manage your data. Not an easy task by any means but a very plausible goal.
