Kong will crash on the ARM64 platform (the machine with Mac M1/M2 chips or any ARM64 platform). The error message shows the crash is triggered by the SIGILL signal, which means there is an illegal instruction in the Kong binary code. And it turns out to be caused by an error in the LuaJIT ARM64 JIT compiler. This post records how the error is found and fixed.
APIs have revolutionized every industry. They fuel digital transformation and power the web, making up more than 83% of global internet traffic. And API adoption will only grow, with AI, Web3, and decentralization only further driving API usage and integration. But these sometimes-overlooked enablers of connectivity and communication present a serious security challenge: APIs are increasingly in the crosshairs of cyber-attackers.
In the past decade, chat apps have gone from being a disruptive new technology to something we use every day. Today, WhatsApp boasts over 2 billion daily active users, by far the market leader, followed by WeChat with 1.3 billion and Facebook Messenger at just under 1 billion. Chat apps, put simply, are going nowhere. In that time, customers have come to expect a consistent experience across their chat apps – and a core set of functionality has evolved across all major providers.
One of the hardest debates is deciding between a code-first API approach or design-first. In an ideal world, we would deliver our APIs at maximum velocity, with minimum maintenance. To maintain the appropriate API consumption, the world has looked at Amazon’s API Gateway as the orchestration of resources to create, deploy, and manage APIs at scale. One of the biggest challenges users face when using any API Gateway is the lack of consistency and standardization throughout the API experience.

Hey there! Ever had a website crash on you during a big sale? Or noticed your site becoming tortoise-slow when traffic picks up? That’s precisely why we need to talk about load testing, especially for PHP websites. This article is perfect for business owners, software engineers, product owners, and DevOps. Don’t worry; I’ll break it down in a way everyone can understand.
Elasticity, as the term implies, is the ability for software infrastructure to stretch and shrink in line with fluctuating usage. Elasticity is important in many contexts – because usage can always fluctuate – but it’s especially important for sports, media, and entertainment apps, which frequently serve user bases that grow and shrink rapidly depending on events, trends, and breaking news.
The effects of disconnected data are many: lack of data-driven decision making, inaccurate information, and slower processes, to name just a few. When you quantify the total cost of data silos, you’ll find that organizations have a lot to lose. While many data silo statistics predict a gloomy future where organizations struggle to unite their enterprise data, new approaches to data management, like data fabric, can help.
