Read up on what’s new and what's next in Kong’s latest product releases.
The MCP demo impressed the room. Then someone asked how 5,000 employees would connect to 40 MCP servers, and the answer was: one OAuth consent screen at a time. Per user. Per server. No central policy, no unified audit trail, and nothing stopping a personal account from getting wired into a work…
As of July 2026, Kong Gateway Enterprise 3.11 will enter its End Of Life (EOL) phase and will no longer be fully supported by Kong. Following this, Kong Gateway Enterprise 3.11 will enter a 12-month sunset support period, focused on helping customers upgrade to a current version of Kong Gateway…
Kong Insomnia 13 delivers native Kong Konnect Gateway integration that lets developers query live gateway configuration directly from their terminal, so what they test is always what's deployed, with no manual spec imports and no stale collections. To get started for free, click here . You invested…
AI moves fast: new models, new pricing, new capabilities, sometimes all at once. Prepaid credits let customers buy value upfront and spend it across whatever you're offering today or launch next, without needing to reprice, remigrate, or renegotiate every time something changes. Prepaid credits are…
A new version of KAi, the Kong Konnect agentic platform assistant, is live. This is the release that turns KAi from a knowledgeable guide into something that can actually build inside your org — of course, within guardrails that you control. Until now, KAi could tell you how to set up a service,…
Kong Mesh 2.14 delivers important improvements for multi-zone customers, with expanded policy support for zone proxies, new SNI-based matching for cross-zone and external-service traffic, stronger default security settings, and better observability through OpenTelemetry and Grafana dashboards. What…

Today we're announcing kongctl 1.0, Kong's new command-line (CLI) tool for managing Kong Konnect programmatically. This release brings kongctl to the Generally Available (GA) level of support and capabilities, giving developers, platform engineers, and AI coding agents a streamlined tool for…
Kong Operator 2.2 is now available. This release continues our work to make Kubernetes the central place to manage more of the Kong ecosystem. In 2.1, we expanded what customers could do with Konnect and Gateway API. With 2.2, we're building on that foundation by bringing Kong Event Gateway and…

Scaling LLM and agentic AI adoption from pilot programs to enterprise-wide deployments is a massive logistical rollout. As AI and agentic usage grow, so does a nagging question for leadership: Are agents using the right tools to get the job done? While raw infrastructure metrics might tell you if a…
The best platform teams don't write glue code — they configure great infrastructure. But as API platform architectures get more complex, policy logic does not always fit into a one-size-fits-all model. Not only that, but security toil compounds with every new service, credential, and cloud provider…
The shift from single-model AI features to multi-agent pipelines is no longer a future concern — it's running in production today. MCP has become the de facto protocol for tool-calling, agent-to-agent (A2A) communication patterns are proliferating, and enterprise teams are wiring together complex…
When enterprises started experimenting with LLMs, the governance challenge — while still difficult — was relatively contained once you had an AI Gateway for LLM traffic. You had a request going to a model, a response coming back, and a gateway in between to enforce policy. With the right solutions,…
Event-driven architectures (EDAs) have pretty quickly transformed from a niche engineering pattern to the all-pervasive central nervous system of the modern enterprise. With Apache Kafka at the helm, enterprises are rapidly shifting gears from synchronous REST APIs to asynchronous event streams to…
As enterprises race to deploy multicloud architectures and Agentic AI, they face a common bottleneck: "state." To govern AI token usage, manage agent-to-agent communication, or optimize performance via caching, API and AI gateways require a persistence layer to synchronize data. We’re excited to…
