Every new protocol introduces complexities—onboarding new tools and SDKs, adapting to new processes, evaluating security and performance implications, ensuring compatibility with existing systems, and overcoming the learning curve. So when a new protocol shows up, the first question to ask is: is it really necessary? Let’s ask that about MCP—what problem is it trying to solve?

Rate limiting and throttling are two key strategies for managing API traffic in multi-tenant systems. While both aim to maintain performance and prevent misuse, they work in different ways: Rate Limiting: Sets strict caps on the number of requests a user can make within a specific time frame. Extra requests are rejected outright with an HTTP 429 status code. Throttling: Dynamically adjusts request processing speeds based on system load. Extra requests are slowed down or queued rather than blocked.

We're excited to announce the general availability of Konnect Debugger, formerly known as Active Tracing during its tech preview phase. This powerful debugging and observability solution in Kong Konnect has evolved from a focused tracing tool into a comprehensive debugging platform.

Delivering a high quality product is a must in the software development industry. Functionality, performance and user satisfaction can all be severely impacted by defects, also known as bugs or issues. Defect Management becomes crucial at this point. In this blog we’ll discuss the definition of defects, the importance of properly managing them, and how a systematic Defect Management Process (DMP) guarantees software testing quality and dependability.

Would you believe me if I say there is a development methodology that considers changing requirements and technical risks as part of the process instead of obstacles to be overcome? Sounds crazy, right? That’s exactly what I thought about the Spiral Model until I took a closer look. I’m not saying it’s perfect for every project or that we should all use it. But for certain types of projects, the messy, uncertain, high-stakes ones, it may be just what you need!
