Service Catalog: The End of API Sprawl

Introducing Kong's Service Catalog, a powerful feature within the Kong Konnect platform designed to improve the lives of API producers. Learn how you can get a complete, 360-degree overview of your entire service ecosystem, not just the services running behind a Kong gateway. In this demo, you will learn: This tool is essential for platform teams who need to enforce governance and for application teams who need clear visibility into service details and dependencies.

Debugger in Kong Konnect

Are you spending too much time trying to track down failing requests or figure out performance issues within your Kong API Gateway? In this quick demo, we show you how to use Konnect's Debugger to save hours of debugging time by rapidly finding the root cause of latency and other issues. You'll learn how Debugger allows you to set up deep tracing sessions for your Kong data planes, collecting OpenTelemetry-compatible traces across the entire request and response lifecycle. We will walk you through a real-world scenario where we diagnose a spike in latency for a specific service.

How to Build a Single LLM AI Agent with Kong AI Gateway and LangGraph

In my previous post, we discussed how we can implement a basic AI Agent with Kong AI Gateway. In part two of this series, we're going to review LangGraph fundamentals, rewrite the AI Agent and explore how Kong AI Gateway can be used to protect an LLM infrastructure as well as external functions.

What Is A Python Bytestring?

In the programming language, Python, binary data and text are often used when working with files, APIs, data encoding and decoding, and networking. In this article, we are going to answer some of the common questions that arise in this process. Some of which include what bytestrings are, how to convert strings to bytes and vice versa, their differences, and many more. This guide will cover all that is required for you to master bytestrings in Python.

How to Automate API Documentation for Enterprise Systems

Automating API documentation can save time, reduce errors, and improve efficiency in enterprise systems. Here's why it matters and how it works: Why It’s Important: APIs are crucial for enterprise operations, but manual documentation often lags behind code updates, leading to errors, delays, and increased support costs. Challenges of Manual Documentation: It’s time-consuming, prone to human error, and pulls developers away from critical tasks.

Delivering scalable, serverless APIs with SmartBear and AWS

Amazon API Gateway and AWS Lambda are widely used for deploying and running scalable APIs or applications in the cloud. While they offer powerful capabilities for deploying and scaling APIs, designing the API or maintaining visibility into performance and reliability can be challenging without the right tools in place.

Latency Testing Guide For Faster Apps

Hey, so you have been wondering why your favourite app sometimes feels like it sometimes stuck in slow motion, right? Well, keep your coffee aside because we are about to learn something that affects literally every digital experience you have, i.e. latency testing. In this blog, we are going to explore about latency testing and how it makes a bigger impact and why you should care about it. Latency is just one piece of the broader performance testing puzzle.
