Managing APIs at Scale in a Kubernetes Environment - Part II

In the last blog, we discussed the challenges in managing APIs at scale in a Kubernetes environment. We also discussed how deploying a Kubernetes Ingress Controller or an API gateway can help you address those challenges. In this blog, we will briefly touch upon some of the similarities and differences between an API gateway and Kubernetes Ingress. We will also discuss a unique approach offered by Kong for the end-to-end lifecycle API management (APIM) in Kubernetes.

Process Mining, Low-code, and the Future of Innovation, Part 1

This is the decade of hyperautomation—a decade when companies are doubling down on mating critical processes to drive sustainable growth. But here’s the problem. An eye-popping 60 to 80% of your organization’s processes may be running on unstructured data such as documents and email according to news reports. Which makes them that much harder to automate manage and audit.

A new report from Raconteur highlights the most important trends shaping the future of enterprise data management in 2021. The Raconteur Future of Data Report is packed with valuable insights that reveal how the world’s leading businesses are generating and collecting more data than ever before, and how they’re innovating to make better use of it.

How Cloudera DataFlow Enables Successful Data Mesh Architectures

In this blog, I will demonstrate the value of Cloudera DataFlow (CDF), the edge-to-cloud streaming data platform available on the Cloudera Data Platform (CDP), as a Data integration and Democratization fabric. Within the context of a data mesh architecture, I will present industry settings / use cases where the particular architecture is relevant and highlight the business value that it delivers against business and technology areas.

A Practical Guide to Automated Testing Strategy: Benefits, Best Practices, and More

An automated testing strategy answers the who, what, when, why, and how of software test automation. While automation can be used for many kinds of software testing, in this post, we’re going to focus on the steps you should take when developing a strategy for functional UI testing (also known as end-to-end testing). End-to-end testing simulates real user conditions to test the functionality of an application from the front-end user interface.

The Great Data Revolution Is Here, and Qlik Customers Are at the Heart of It

Data – the amount we create, how we create it, how it is accessed (think both people and Artificial Intelligence/machines), and how we use it to inform, propel and influence everyone and everything is one of the biggest challenges and opportunities we face in our lifetime. And it’s driving enormous change.

Application Logging in 2021

Have you ever written a Hello, World! application? In most of these tutorials the first step is to log words to the console. It's an easy way to understand what is going on with your application and readily available in every programming language. The console output is incredibly powerful, and it has become easier than ever to capture that output as logs. As your application grows and evolves you need to implement a structured application log approach.

Token-Based Access Control With Kong, OPA and Curity

As APIs and microservices evolve, the architecture used to secure these resources must also mature. Utilizing a token-based architecture to protect APIs is a robust, secure and scalable approach, and it is also much safer than API keys or basic authentication. However, token-based architecture comes in varying maturity levels, as outlined by the API Security Maturity Model.
