Insomnia 101: Introduction to API Design, Debugging, and Testing with Insomnia

Take control of your API development process with Insomnia's powerful testing toolkit. In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn essential techniques to validate, debug, and improve your APIs. Whether you're building integrations or maintaining existing services, you'll gain practical skills to catch issues early and streamline your development workflow. In this workshop, we'll focus on foundational concepts and getting started with Insomnia. We'll show you how to.

The New Kong Konnect Dev Portal

APIs are the fuel of modern innovation, but they have to be discoverable and easily consumable to drive the maximum possible value. Without an easy-to-use, developer-friendly discovery layer, Developers are stuck searching across disparate repositories for APIs, or — even worse — wasting time and effort building redundant APIs. The market has already responded to this need with the API Developer Portal concept, where the portal acts as a central catalog for all APIs.

The Definitive Guide to API Test Automation Services

In the current rapid digital environment, uninterrupted communication among applications is essential. Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) are essential, serving as the unseen framework that links various software systems. Guaranteeing the stability, performance, and security of these APIs is now an imperative rather than a luxury.

Kong Konnect Advanced Analytics: Running Faster Than StatsD

Earlier this year the Kong Konnect Analytics team was looking to leverage the stability and flexibility of our own Kong Gateway to handle the entire load of our Analytics ingest firehose. Almost all Konnect API traffic flows through a Kong Gateway and most of it has from the very beginning. For some legacy and differing protocol reasons, our Analytics ingest service was not included in our initial Kong Gateway configuration.

Building API First Integrations with Choreo

In this demo, we showcase how to build, deploy, and manage an integration service using WSO2 Micro Integrator and Choreo. You'll learn how to create a project, add components, and automate the CI/CD pipeline for seamless deployments. We’ll walk through deploying the integration service, securing and managing the API, and using the Developer Portal to discover, subscribe, and invoke the API. Plus, we’ll cover insights, observability, and API governance, highlighting how Choreo simplifies integration development with automation, security, and real-time monitoring.

The Rise of Agentic Workflows in Software Development

Imagine workflows so intelligent they can adapt to changing conditions, solve problems autonomously, and collaborate seamlessly across teams – all while freeing up your time for the tasks that truly matter. This isn’t science fiction; it’s the promise of agentic workflows. As the software development world races to keep up with evolving demands, agentic workflows represent a revolutionary leap, offering a smarter, faster, and more adaptive approach to managing complexity.

Rapid Incident Response: How to Minimize Downtime in Production

Imagine you received an urgent Slack notification that bypassed your notification snooze. Your stomach drops as you realize there is a critical problem with your application. The next few hours are not going to be fun. Uptime and high performance are key elements of a successful application. If users can’t effectively get what they need from your app, they’ll quit and find an alternative.

Monetizing Proprietary Data Through APIs: How to Unlock New Revenue in the AI World

A report by Bloomberg Intelligence projects the AI industry will reach $1.3 trillion by 2032, with proprietary data fueling much of this growth. As businesses increasingly adopt generative AI (genAI) to enhance efficiency, data is rapidly becoming one of the most valuable assets in the digital economy. Foundational AI models require vast amounts of data for training, and many AI products are now leveraging proprietary datasets alongside these models to power innovative applications and AI agents.
