How to add Moesif API Analytics and Monitoring to Kong Ingress Controller
Kong is a popular open-source API gateway to help manage your APIs. With Kong, you can handle authentication, rate limiting, data transformation, among other things from a centralized location even though you have multiple microservices. Kong is built on NGINX at it’s core, one of the most popular HTTP servers. Being open-source, Kong is very easy to deploy on-premises usually in just a few minutes without requiring the installation of many components other than a Postgres or Cassandra store.

Automating Contract-Centric Experiences to Accelerate Front End Development
This Kong Summit 2020 session focuses on the war stories, and subsequently the patterns HyperCurrent employed, from building an API chargeback/monetization product using OAS, Kotlin, Spring Boot and Kong. We will discuss how a programmatic approach can be used to deliver an elegant REST-ful API while enforcing an anti-corruption layer for domain logic without writing API contracts by hand. By using Kotlin and Spring Boot along with a controller/DTO approach, we can automatically produce an OAS contract, HTML docs, a console and a client side SDK.
