[Online Meetup] The Role of API Gateways in an Evolving Distributed World

The world is changing and so is the way we work as we become increasingly distributed. We can’t apply old processes to new environments. Much like having to work from home has forced a change in how we work together as teams, successfully managing services in increasingly decentralized architectures demands a different way of thinking. Join Melissa van der Hecht, Product Manager at Kong, to look at the surprising similarities between our own work processes and our services as we adapt to new routines in distributed locations. 

How to Automate Deployment of Microservices With an API Gateway to a Multi-Cloud Environment

In today’s enterprise computing landscape, multi-cloud organizations are quickly becoming the norm rather than the exception. By leveraging an API-first strategy with a microservice-based architecture, companies can achieve significant speed to market across multiple clouds. In order to achieve this, container orchestration and a well-designed CI/CD strategy are essential components in this journey.

Building an AngularJS application using the DreamFactory REST API backend

If you’re building an AngularJS application, you’ve landed on the right page. Now that DreamFactory 2.0 is live on Bitnami, our team has been busy building example apps to show how easy it is to use DreamFactory as your REST API backend. I’ve been working on DreamFactory’s AngularJS sample address book app and tutorial. This blog summarizes a few important things to know about getting started with the DreamFactory Angular sample app.

Instantly Create A Salesforce REST API

The Salesforce CRM is crucial to business operations for millions of organizations. Data often needs to be moved between Salesforce and other technologies such as SQL or NoSQL databases. Using DreamFactory's powerful integration platform you can easily create sophisticated workflows for moving data between Salesforce and any number of destinations.

6 Reasons to Use API Management in the Age of Loosely-Coupled App Design

APIs (Application Performance Interfaces) have changed the way we build applications, and they’ve changed how applications communicate with each other. Essentially, APIs give enterprises the agility to rapidly and cost-effectively incorporate new services and updates into their applications and IT infrastructures.

7 API Design Trends

The application program interface (API) of a platform is its toolkit for building software apps; We’re taking a closer look at Seven API design trends. It’s the sandbox that defines the rules for how components will interact with each other. Our own interactions are changing in the 2020s, especially in the post-coronavirus era. APIs for operating system (OS)- or web-based platforms and graphical user interfaces (GUI) are all changing along with us.

Customer Health Metrics Help CSM Teams Reduce Churn and Accelerate Upsell in API Platform Companies

One of our API-first brethren in San Francisco recently shared with us how they built their synthetic testing system to monitor uptime and latency. It was a large undertaking involving a huge Redshift warehouse, Datadog and many man months of engineering effort. At the end of it, they could measure latency’s completeness, whether it was functionally correct and, when it moved out of bounds, alert CSM/engineering teams.
