GraphQL API Authorization Strategy with Kong Konnect and Styra DAS

In this talk, Claudio Acquaviva (Senior Solution Architect at Kong) and Ádám Sándor (Solutions Architect at Styra) discuss how to leverage Kong Konnect API Gateway and Styra Declarative Authorization Service (DAS) to build Open Policy Agent (OPA) authorization policies for GraphQL APIs. You will first learn how to implement a GraphQL API at Kong Gateway with OPA, followed by diving into Styra DAS to provide an enterprise-ready policy management platform to build, test, and deploy authorization policies.

API Exploration for Designers

API design is critical to the success of API products, and API exploration can significantly improve the quality of API designs. In this webinar, Frank and Temil cover the benefits of adopting a specification-based approach and how by leveraging API exploration tools, API designers can deliver high-quality APIs that provide a positive DX for consumers.

Creating an API Monetization Stack

API monetization is currently a trending topic for many organizations looking to beef up their revenue. Of course, monetizing APIs isn’t the easiest of tasks and requires quite a few moving parts. When it comes to monetization, you’re going to need an entire technology stack to handle the heavy lifting. Creating a stack that allows you to build a product and get to market rapidly is great.

How To Connect Legacy ERPs to Modern Applications

Research shows that legacy systems make up 31% of the technology in organizations. These are systems that might still provide value for your enterprise but are unable to interact with other software tools, rendering them almost useless for your digital transformation objectives. Many legacy systems are ERP systems that exist in data silos, incapable of integrating with the rest of your organization. In this article, we’ll show you how to connect legacy ERPs to modern applications.

API Platform and Data Mesh: Why Bring Them Together

Enterprises are investing in data mesh initiatives to accelerate how decisions are made and to create novel experiences based on machine learning models. Similarly, enterprises are investing in API platform initiatives to productize business domains (or bounded contexts in domain-driven design parlance) as self-service digital assets that accelerate innovation and improve business agility. Both initiatives are typically run as separate work streams.
