Kuma is configurable through policies. These enable users to configure their service mesh with retries, timeouts, observability, and more. Policies contain three main pieces of information: Kuma 2.0 introduces a new matching API that’s more understandable and powerful. In this article, we explain why we’re doing this, how to use the new policy matching API, and what’s coming next.

The Java programming language is a high-level, object-oriented language that enables developers to create robust, reusable code. Java is known for its portability and platform independence, which means that Java code can run on any system that supports the Java Runtime Environment (JRE). Java was originally developed by James Gosling at Sun Microsystems in 1995. Since then, the language has undergone several changes and has become one of the most widely used programming languages in the world.

If you’ve worked with load testing before, you know that there are a lot of things to consider. Whether or not you should combine load testing and mocks is one of those considerations. Getting to the answer requires knowledge of your infrastructure and your development procedures, which will all influence what questions you need to ask yourself.

Trying to determine what applications your organization needs? The application integration question can be a challenging exercise. According to a recent study, only 30% of companies succeed at digital transformation.

When responding to our clients, we can utilize various status codes defined by the HTTP protocol. Others wish to fully utilize HTTP's library of codes to inform their clients of any issues; some APIs simply use the most fundamental codes and develop their own error-signaling systems on top of them. This tutorial explains the CRUD actions and the status codes you should employ for a clean API design.
