Starting with the 2.7 release, using Cassandra as a configuration datastore for the Kong Gateway will be considered deprecated. Cassandra features will remain in Kong throughout the (currently unreleased) 3.x series, and its use will not be prohibited. However, some newly introduced functionality throughout 3.x may not be optimized for performance or have full functionality when using Cassandra.

Tyk is becoming increasingly popular among developers who want to create a secure microservices-based architecture and connect apps and services that comprise a cloud and hybrid cloud IT infrastructure. Tyk may not be right for you and your company for several reasons. Tyk says it can “empower your teams” and “put your devs in the driving seat.” It also calls itself the “leading cloud-native API and service management platform.” But how true are these claims?

2021 was another great year for WSO2. Although it was business as usual in the new norm, the results were exceptional. The company acquired 145 new customers and achieved revenue growth of 31% YoY. We started our journey towards radically simplifying the creation of digital experiences for our customers by introducing new cloud platforms.

In this blog post series, we have discussed how Kubernetes enhances a container-based microservices architecture. We examine the rise of containers and Kubernetes to understand the organizational and technical advantages of each, including a deep dive into the ways Kubernetes can improve processes for deploying, scaling and managing containerized applications. The first in the series covered Next-Generation Application Development. The second covered the Next Frontier: Container Orchestration.

We have launched a redesign of Moesif’s in-app experience and it’s a big one! As part of our journey to give our users the best experience possible, we’ve streamlined our in-app navigation. This update makes it easier to find key features in Moesif and will hopefully allow even existing users to see some features they haven’t used before but may be useful. As with all changes, big and small, there may be a learning curve.

Fast access to data is more important now than ever before. Native applications often can produce that extra bit of performance that makes the difference. But the push to leverage lower level APIs comes with its own set of challenges and costs. SourcePro has been designed to allow you to focus on solving your business problems instead of getting bogged down in unclear and error prone low-level API coding.

An application programming interface (API) value chain connects you to your customers through a series of partners. Unlike browser-based web apps where your customers buy goods or services directly from your website. APIs are a vital component of your digital business strategy. They help you analyze data and enable a multi-cloud strategy that can dramatically accelerate your time-to-market. Once you know how to create API value chains, you can implement them right away.
