As organizations move from monolith to microservices, on-premise to cloud, both API gateway and service mesh technologies play an important role as you modernize your applications. Often organizations begin with a gateway, but face new challenges when integrating cloud-native and legacy workloads.

In this webinar, Kong Senior Solutions Engineers Simon Green and Adam Bauman discuss how each technology can aid cloud migration – and the importance of fostering a culture of cloud-native adoption within an organization.

Key Takeaways

  • Understand the different maturity levels behind application modernization, including what tools are useful at each stage
  • How cloud native patterns can be applied to facilitate security, observability, and governance
  • What challenges to anticipate when shifting to an API-first and a Service-Oriented approach
  • The importance of architectural freedom, including using declarative configuration to be cloud-agnostic
