Testkube for your microservices woes

Enterprises have long relied on monolithic applications to run their operations and provide different functions and services to their customers.

Get Ready For The Cloud API War

About a decade ago, cloud computing became the norm in enterprise IT deployments. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and Integrated Platform as a Service (iPaaS) vendors were fiercely competing to deliver the private and public cloud products that would power the next generation of app development, processing, storage, and networking. And since APIs are at the heart of cloud computing, the race was on to deliver the API that developers and sysadmins would most favor. The Cloud API War had begun.
