CRUD (Create, Read, Update, and Delete) is a set of operations allowing users to interact with a database simply and consistently. Creating a CRUD API allows other systems and developers to interact easily with a data store or set. By providing a simple and consistent set of operations, CRUD APIs make it easy to build, scale, and secure applications. Some benefits of a CRUD API include When developing a CRUD API, there are many options to choose from.

APIs have become the backbone of modern software development, by facilitating seamless communication between applications and systems. But building an effective API requires more than just good coding skills. It also requires careful monitoring and analysis to ensure optimal performance, security, and adoption. Additionally, creating accurate and in-depth reports can be time-consuming and complicated, especially when dealing with large data sets.

Self-hosted software is also called on-premises software and refers to an open-source application installed and maintained by a person or an enterprise employing their private web servers. Self-hosted software allows complete control over your infrastructure and data but requires more effort to manage, maintain, and secure. Many web apps you use on a daily basis, such as Google Docs and Gmail, are run on a third-party server.

As an application development leader, you’ll want to continuously improve your team's processes and outcomes. The cloud marketplace has become a popular way for enterprises to buy software, but with the increasing amount of sensitive data being processed, stored, and transmitted in the cloud, security has become a critical concern for both cloud service providers and their customers.

At WSO2, our guiding principle is "treat people the way you want to be treated." This value is deeply ingrained in our company culture and is at the heart of everything we do - from creating products to engaging in transparent and honest communication with our customers. That's why we supplement our frequent customer check-ins with a biannual Net Promoter Score (NPS) survey to receive feedback from our customers and ensure we deliver exceptional service and solutions that meet their unique needs.

Although the severity of the risks can vary, it’s nevertheless crucial for your development process to reduce risk as much as possible.

gRPC is an open source remote procedure call (RPC) framework that enables client and server applications to communicate with each other remotely and transparently. In this blog post, we are going to discuss gRPC. First, we’ll talk about RPCs and why they are important. Then we’ll explain how gRPC works, taking a closer look at protocol buffers and the architecture of gRPC.

We started 2023 by closing our fiscal year and achieving hypergrowth — once again. We’ve surpassed 600 customers, increased our employee base by 22% year over year, opened our newest office in Singapore following rapid growth in the Asia Pacific region, and expanded meetups to 46 countries and more than 12,000 attendees.

In my previous post on scaling Kong deployments with and without a database, we covered the concepts of deploying Kong with and without a database, as well as using decK, distributed, and hybrid deployments. In this article, we take a tour of some of the possible Kubernetes deployments of Kong. Kubernetes (K8s) is the container orchestration war winner. While there are still deployments using other engines, we see K8s far more.
