I’m excited to announce that Kong Enterprise, our modern, scalable service connectivity platform, is now available on top cloud marketplaces, including AWS Marketplace and GovCloud (US) regions, Azure Marketplace, Google Cloud Platform, and Red Hat Marketplace!

In Kong, plugins can be thought of as policy enforcers. In the case of rate limiting, Kong offers two plugins: An open source one and Enterprise. Both plugins can limit requests per consumer, route, service or globally. Configuring the same plugin is also possible on a more than level. When this occurs, an order of precedence is used to determine which configuration to run. With this capability, it is possible to apply fine-grained policy control. In this article, we cover an advanced use case.

Small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) are the lifeblood of the economy: according to Deloitte, companies with fewer than 500 employees represent 99.7 percent of all businesses in the U.S., and employ 48 percent of the private workforce.

APIs (application programming interfaces) are an essential, yet often overlooked, component of the modern organization’s IT environment. According to a 2020 study, 83 percent of IT professionals and executives say that API integration is “critical” to their business strategy.

In this guide you’ll learn how to send Moesif behavioral emails with Sendgrid. Moesif behavioral emails is a feature that automatically sends emails to customers based on their API usage. This can be used to notify customers about technical issues, such as hitting rate limits, using deprecated APIs, or broken integrations. You can even use it to trigger business-related events such as when an item is shipped. If something can be mapped to an API call, then you can send an email from it.
