How to Send Behavioral Emails with Mailgun and Moesif API Analytics

In this guide you’ll learn how to send Moesif behavioral emails with Mailgun. Moesif behavioral emails is a service that sends emails to customers based on their requests to your API. These emails can be used to notify users about technical issues, such as API limits or broken integrations, as well as business-related events such as how many items you’ve shipped. If something can be mapped to an API call, then you can send an email on it.

Journey to the Cloud: From On-Prem to Public Cloud With Kong | Tyler Technologies

The team at Tyler Technologies has used Kong to help take the company’s applications from on-premise installations to multi-tenant cloud services. In this session, we’ll explore how Kong can help make this move without clients ever knowing it even happened, how we use Kong Brain to automatically generate OpenAPI documentation for our integrators and the AWS infrastructure choices we made to get a large, robust Kong instance running in AWS.

Implement a Canary Release with Kong for Kubernetes and Consul

From the Kong API Gateway perspective, using Consul as its Service Discovery infrastructure is one of the most well-known and common integration use cases. With this powerful combination more flexible and advanced routing policies can be implemented to address Canary Releases, A/B testings, Blue-Green deployments, etc. totally abstracted from the Gateway standpoint without having to deal with lookup procedures.

Taking the Leap Seamlessly Transition Legacy Applications to Kubernetes

For many organizations, moving legacy applications to modern cloud infrastructures holds great promise, such as reducing IT overhead and accelerating development times. However, in reality, these projects can be fraught with delays and service interruptions while burdening your team with transition tasks.

Service Design Guidelines with OpenAPI and Kong - Part I

We are in the midst of an explosion of APIs and microservices. For some, the first instinct of creating an API is to get down to building one. Some level of planning will help manage the quality of APIs when working within a team. In this series of blogs, we will be sharing some guidelines on service design while working on API projects with Kong. Let us start by focusing on how to go about designing APIs that end up as entities that the Kong API Gateway runtime understands.
