We are pleased to announce the 2023.1 release of Tricentis LiveCompare. In this latest release, we introduce two groundbreaking features that will not only transform your approach to application retrofits, but also provide critical insights that minimize the risk of overwriting code, remove complexity and manual effort, and ensure the quality of releases. These features are Retrofit Analysis and Smart Impact Reports.

We are proud to announce the release of Apache Kafka® 3.6.0. This release contains many new features and improvements. This blog post will highlight some of the more prominent features. For a full list of changes, be sure to check the release notes.

Choreo now allows you to specify WSO2’s Micro Integrator runtime version and update level when deploying integrations. Previously, Choreo defaulted all deployments of WSO2 Micro Integrator projects to a specific runtime version and update level. With this improvement, developers can specify the exact runtime version and update level required for their integrations. This improvement simplifies the development and troubleshooting process for integration developers.

We're delighted to unveil Choreo API Chat, Choreo's innovative approach to interacting with APIs, powered by Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT) 3.5 large language model (LLM) from Azure OpenAI. This allows users to try out APIs running or proxied via Choreo using natural language, serving as a complementary tool to traditional methods. It offers a convenient way to quickly try out endpoints without delving deeply into API specifications or crafting intricate JSON payloads.

API Summit 2023 has just concluded, with awesome announcements including the launch of Kong Mesh in Konnect, and Dedicated Cloud Gateways. In addition to launching new capabilities, we also ensured that our existing products continue to grow and deliver value. With that in mind, I’m pleased to announce the immediate availability of Kong Ingress Controller 2.12.

One of the main challenges API producers face is making improvements and enhancements to their APIs without getting their clients to upgrade API versions (i.e., change their applications). We're excited to introduce semantic version-based intelligent routing in Choreo, making API consumption easier than ever. This feature groups APIs into their major versions, and the corresponding URLs are simplified to include only the major version number.

We're excited to roll out our new feature: Data Streams. This feature unlocks new opportunities with the integration of Webhooks and Data Streams, transforming the way you tap into real-time data.

We’re excited to announce Kong's unified API lifecycle management platform. Kong Konnect, our cloud API platform, can now manage services from API gateway, Ingress, and service mesh with a hosted control plane that can be implemented across any cloud provider, Kubernetes distribution, or on-premises data centers.

Today at API Summit 2023, we’re launching a revolutionary update to Kong Konnect SaaS that brings together many of the innovations we’ve been developing this last year. This latest version of Kong Konnect is dedicated to visionary and pragmatic developers and customers who are working hard to make their organizations leaders in an API-first world. For the first time ever, the Kong Konnect unified API platform can now bring together all API runtimes under one, single cloud management plane.
