Performance tests, end-to-end tests, integration tests. There are many different types of tests you can run on your infrastructure. One of the most overlooked kinds is load testing. Failure to include load tests in your supply chain can be detrimental, as you will be missing out on a number of benefits. Some of the big advantages of load testing Kubernetes are.

When it comes to building resilient software, stress testing is like a rigorous obstacle course for your system, pushing it to its absolute limits. Think of it as bootcamp training where your app must endure and thrive under extreme conditions. For Developers, SDETs, and QAs, mastering stress testing is not just a skill—it’s a necessity. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll dive deep into stress testing, with a focus on details, statistics, tools, and actionable insights.

With the promise of auto-provisioning and self-healing, Kubernetes environments can be an attractive option for hosting your application platform. However, with increasing budget restrictions, the competitive cloud providers and offerings, and the need to do more with less, engineers are looking to get a handle on their resource utilization.

APIs facilitate effortless communication and data exchange between applications and services. However, their inherent design, which codifies service capabilities within the API definition, makes them easily exploitable by malicious actors. API attacks in the US alone are projected to cost $506 billion this decade — and are expected to surge 996% by 2030. And API-related breaches lead to more leaked data than the average security breach, according to Gartner.

Today we're excited to announce Kong Gateway 3.9! Since unveiling Kong Gateway 3.8 at API Summit 2024 just a few months ago, we’ve been busy making important updates and improvements to Kong Gateway. This release introduces new functionality around LLM support for AI governance and security and threat protection. Keep reading to learn more!

Right tools can make a lot of difference, and in the world of software development, it’s absolutely true. VS Code, with its rich ecosystem of extensions, has become the go-to code editor for developers worldwide. As of 2025, here are the five must-have VS Code extensions that every developer should consider adding to their toolkit. These tools not only save time but also enhance our coding experience, ensuring that you can focus on what truly matters: building amazing software.

Large Language Models, or LLMs, have become a near-ubiquitous technology in recent years. Promising the ability to generate human-like content with simple and direct prompts, LLMs have been integrated across a diverse array of systems, purposes, and functions, including content generation, image identification and curation, and even heuristics-based performance testing for APIs and other software components.

What would happen if your software faced an unpredictable input that no one ever thought to test? Could it withstand the challenge or fail catastrophically? Software has been a backbone for every industry, whether e-commerce platforms or the finance industry. For this to be relied on, software must be robust, reliable, and secure to function absolutely seamlessly.

Language capabilities have virtually changed from what it once was, thanks to the newest AI advancements that made huge leaps in language-based tasks. Fittingly enough, today, two so highly spoken-of models that usher content development, interaction, and debugging are ChatGPT 4.0 and Claude 3.5 Sonnet. Creating possibilities or tasks for the user has deservedly led to the necessity of being able to weigh up the opponents, so as to make the right decision for themselves.
