In today’s interconnected and dynamic world of microservices, ensuring optimal traffic management and protection against malicious attacks are critical. Rate limiting, a popular mechanism for controlling request flow, gets more effortless with the introduction of Global Rate Limiting in Kong Mesh. In this blog post, we’ll explore this exciting new feature and its benefits in detail.
We are thrilled to announce that we have reached a significant milestone in our journey to provide the best possible developer experience to our Kong user community. We have added a host of new functionality to decK, our declarative management tool for Kong Gateway. These new functions enhance API lifecycle automation (APIOps) capabilities and provide a smoother path to federated API management. These features are now available to everyone and can be found in decK 1.24.0.
In this Kong Konnect tutorial, you’ll learn how to leverage the platform to manage your API ecosystem from a single easy-to-use interface.

The release of Kuma 2.3 brings experimental support for GAMMA (Gateway API for Mesh Management and Administration) resources. Kuma has long supported Gateway API with the built-in gateway for ingress traffic but with GAMMA support, users can specify how to route and modify in-mesh traffic using the well-known HTTPRoute resource from Gateway API. Gateway API is a project focused on improving the APIs around networking between services in Kubernetes clusters.
