When managing Docker containers, effective logging is essential for troubleshooting, monitoring, and ensuring compliance. Mismanaged logs can lead to disk space issues, performance bottlenecks, and lost diagnostic data. Here's a quick breakdown of what you need to know: Choose the right logging driver: Options include json-file (default), syslog, journald, fluentd, and none. Each has unique benefits depending on storage, performance, and integration needs.

Testing database-driven applications is notoriously painful. If your app depends on MySQL, you’ve probably spent hours setting up local databases, running migrations, loading data, and then cleaning everything up just to rerun your tests. This repetitive cycle slows development, breaks pipelines, and introduces inconsistency between local and production environments.

For the tenth consecutive time, Gartner has named Google Cloud Apigee a Leader in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for API Management.

Healthcare organizations are under growing pressure to connect legacy EHR (Electronic Health Record) and ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems while safeguarding patient privacy and meeting strict compliance standards. Most of these systems — Epic, Cerner, MEDITECH, Infor, Oracle, SAP, and others — rely on enterprise-grade databases like Oracle, SQL Server, IBM DB2, SAP HANA, InterSystems IRIS, and PostgreSQL.

One of Kong Gateway’s superpowers is deck, our first-party declarative configuration tool. Tens of thousands of developers all around the world have embraced a text-driven, version-controlled configuration workflow for the world’s most used API Gateway. The deck CLI is an incredible tool, but it only works for Kong Gateway.

Modernizing AS/400 systems and legacy ERP platforms is no longer optional - it’s essential for businesses to stay competitive. These systems, while reliable, struggle to meet modern demands like real-time data access, cloud integration, and mobile compatibility. The solution? REST API generators. REST API generators allow businesses to connect outdated systems with modern applications without overhauling the entire infrastructure.

Today, we're open-sourcing Volcano SDK, a TypeScript SDK for building AI agents that combines LLM reasoning with real-world actions through MCP tools. Why Volcano SDK? One reason: because 9 lines of code are faster to write and easier to manage than 100+. Without Volcano SDK? You'd need 100+ lines handling tool schemas, context management, provider switching, error handling, and HTTP clients. With Volcano SDK: 9 lines. Look how we compress 100+ lines with the following example: That's it.

If you’ve been following Kong, you know that Kong was the first in the API platform space to introduce an enterprise-grade AI Gateway for LLM workloads. Today, we’ve also introduced a new enterprise-grade MCP Gateway to ensure that you can roll out production-ready MCP deployments. But we are focused on more than just the Gateway. Today, we’re excited to announce additional MCP workflow support in the Konnect Developer Portal and a brand new MCP integration solution, the MCP Composer.

With software applications growing increasingly complex, the way we test them to guarantee reliability and security must also increase accordingly. Among the many types of testing available, Grey Box Testing stands out as a hybrid method that presents us with a balanced perspective of insights from both black box and white box testing. It doesn`t matter if you’re a developer, QA engineer, or someone new to testing; grey box testing is important to everyone in today’s technological landscape.
