Tech Talks by Kong are a new webinar series dedicated to our technical developer audience featuring open-source products and topics relevant to you with extended live demos. About this Tech talk: Kong’s Gateway offering wraps several frontend and backend services which include an Admin API and GUI, Developer Portal API and GUI, as well as Ingress Controllers, data plane proxies, and various cache and database backend services. Join Kat Morgan, Field Engineer and Senior Developer Advocate, to determine which components are right for you and your use case.

For our July User Call, join Sven Walther, Principal Solutions Engineer EMEA, to talk about “Using OpenAPI to automatically configure the Kong Gateway”. We are going to automate the creation of Kong services, routes and plugin configurations only based on an OpenAPI file. The tools we will use next to Kong itself are Insomnia/inso-cli, decK and the Kong Ingress Controller.
