In part 1 of this series, we started a journey from the planet-spanning infrastructure layer to what happens inside a single Kong worker, similar to an office building in complexity. In this second part, we’ll dive a bit deeper—we’ll see who the occupants of that office building are and the kind of life they live.

Today, Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) and microservices are the de-facto standard for building and connecting modern applications. APIs are no longer just a delivery mechanism but have become the product itself. API lifecycle management refers to the comprehensive, step-by-step process of planning, developing, implementing, testing, and versioning an API.

Building stable and robust software is one of the primary goals of any software development project. While it is crucial to keep your code error-free for that, the real strength of your application comes from its foundation—the architecture of your code. SOLID is one of the most popular collections of software design principles. Its goal is to help you avoid common pitfalls and plan your application’s architecture from a very high level.

According to Paolo Malinverno, research vice president at Gartner, “We already live in an API economy where CIOs must look beyond APIs as technology and instead build their company's business models, digital strategies, and ecosystems on them." Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) represent reusable code that forms the backbone of these digital transformation strategies. Understanding how API management works can help you determine how best to leverage your systems to gain the most value.
