The Difference Between API Gateways and Service Mesh
For many years, API Management (APIM) — and the adoption of API gateways — was the primary technology used to implement modern API use cases both inside and outside the data center.

Get Started with Kong Gateway: 5 Minute Quickstart
Kong Gateway is the world’s most popular open source API gateway. Built for multi-cloud and hybrid, optimized for microservices and distributed architectures.
Infrastructure as Code without Infrastructure
Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is a powerful process – replacing manual, error prone and expensive operations with automated, consistent and quick provisioning of resources. In many cases, IaC is dependent on existing infrastructure, typically including a configuration management system. Chef, Puppet and SaltStack are all commonly referenced players in this market, each requiring resources to be in place and having their own difficulties in setup and maintenance.
[Online Meetup] Learning Service Mesh From Scratch: from 0 to 100
Service Mesh is the future of application connectivity. It delivers immediate value to any architecture by increasing the security, reliability and observability of our application traffic. At the same time our industry made it challenging to understand and deploy it in production: but it doesn't have to be this way.
[Online Meetup] Kong Gateway 2.0 Deep Dive
We are thrilled to announce the general availability of Kong Gateway 2.0. With this release the technology will become more platform-agnostic to deploy it across on-premises and the cloud (Hybrid mode), and it also becomes more development language agnostic.
[Online Meetup] Mocking APIs with Kong and API Fortress
In this call API Fortress talked about mocking APIs with Kong and API Fortress. You might want to mock APIs to build tests against them before the services are ready, to save money during service development, or to keep your development environments isolated. Learn how API Fortress uses Kong in their API mocking technology. Plus, see a demo.
URL Rewriting in Kong
A common requirement for APIs is to rewrite the published URL to a different URL for the upstream service’s endpoint. For example, due to legacy reasons, your upstream endpoint may have a base URI like /api/oilers/. However, you want your publicly accessible API endpoint to now be named /titans/api.
