KuppingerCole Videocast: What's a Digital Double
The concept of the "digital double" isn’t new, but it’s gaining importance as more and more of our lives are lived in the digital world. Asanka Abeysinghe, WSO2's chief technology officer and the creator of this concept, was a guest on a recent KuppingerCole videocast hosted by Martin Kuppinger, founder and principal analyst at KuppingerCole. During the discussion, Asanka spoke about this unique concept, its benefits, and how it relates to customer identity and access management (CIAM).
Introducing WSO2 API Manager 4.2
We’re excited to announce the latest release in our product lineup — WSO2 API Manager 4.2. The product now comes with enhanced features to support a wider range of practical applications around API service design, creation, integration, development, and exposure.
API linting based on custom rules
At present, API definitions are validated against the default OpenAPI schema upon import and when being edited in the publisher portal. In certain scenarios, such as the validation of fields like email or name, a custom validation approach may be required. This implementation allows administrators to enforce custom rules for API validation, helping to standardize and keep API definitions clean by validating against a specified set of custom rules inside WSO2 API Manager.
ELK Based On analytics with WSO2 Micro Integrator
Analytics is a main part of any deployment which enables the Monitoring of the availability, performance and usage of it’s components. WSO2 Micro Integrator has introduced operational analytics on top of ELK stack which is one of the leading analytics solution in the market. With this solution, a user can monitor the usage of each synapse component individually and identify issues, bottlenecks and improve the reliability and performance of the integration flow.
OpenTelemetry based Distributed Tracing for WSO2 API Manager
Tracing is one of the three pillars of observability. Tracing an API call in WSO2 API Manager is important to observe, identify possible bottlenecks in an API invocation path, and debug them. WSO2 API Manager facilitates tracing API invocation paths and publishing the traces based on the OpenTelemetry standard, using multiple tracers, namely: OpenTelemetry Protocol (OTLP), Jaeger, Zipkin, Log & Custom Tracer. This demo outlines important concepts of OpenTelemetry based distributed tracing in WSO2 API Manager, followed by a demonstration of publishing traces using the OTLP Tracer to Elastic APM, when invoking a sample API.
API policies export and import support for WSO2 API Manager
WSO2 APICTL allows users to perform API related tasks without any UI navigations. As an improvement, now WSO2 APICTL allows users to do common API Policy and Rate Limiting Policy related operations without any UI accesses and accelerates the CI/CD tasks related to the Policy Management. From this feature, it now allows to list, export, import and delete operations on both the common API Policies and Rate Limiting policies in multiple ways in accordance with the commands & their flags introduced.
OpenTelemetry based Distributed Tracing for WSO2 Micro Integrator
Tracing is one of the three pillars of observability. Tracing artifacts of WSO2 Micro Integrator is important to observe, identify possible bottlenecks in a message flow, and debug them. WSO2 Micro Integrator facilitates tracing message flows and publishing the traces based on the OpenTelemetry standard, using multiple tracers, namely: OpenTelemetry Protocol (OTLP), Jaeger, Zipkin, Log & Custom Tracer. This screencast outlines important concepts of OpenTelemetry based distributed tracing in WSO2 Micro Integrator, followed by a demonstration of publishing traces using the OTLP Tracer to New Relic APM, when invoking a simple API.

It's time to consider the business impact of APIs
APIs need to be discussed in terms of business impact. For too long, the API (application programming interface) has been considered a pure technology topic. But with the need to digitise core business operations and deal with rising security threats, business and technology leaders must elevate API strategic discussions. Meanwhile, organisations need to end the hotchpotch of APIs that act as point solutions and adopt a modern integrated platform approach to APIs that will deliver business optimisation and improve the customer experience.
Secure APIs Hosted in Amazon Gateway With Asgardeo
Amazon API Gateway is a service offered by AWS that enables users to create, publish, and maintain secure APIs on any scale. It supports both RESTful APIs and WebSocket APIs. However, It's crucial to secure these APIs before allowing applications to access them. The use of OAuth2 tokens and JWTs is the standard method of securing APIs.
