# Stop Patching. Start Building: The Kong Context Mesh Stack

[Enterprise](/blog/tag/enterprise)EnterpriseJuly 23, 2026

You've diagnosed the problem. Your agentic AI initiatives are stalling — not because the models are wrong, but because the integration layer underneath them wasn't built for this. Batch data, rigid schemas, fragmented governance, no real-time event delivery. The plumbing is the bottleneck . Now the…

# From iPaaS to Context Mesh: The Architecture Shift Agentic AI Demands

[Enterprise](/blog/tag/enterprise)EnterpriseJuly 23, 2026

If you've been around long enough to remember when iPaaS was the answer to everything, you know the pattern. New paradigms arrive. Someone realizes that wiring it into existing infrastructure is harder than the demos suggested. An integration layer gets built. That layer slowly becomes…

# Why Your AI Agents Keep Failing (Hint: It's Not the Model)

[Enterprise](/blog/tag/enterprise)EnterpriseJuly 23, 2026

You swapped in a better model. You fine-tuned it. You threw more tokens at the problem. And still — your agents hallucinate, break under load, and deliver answers that were accurate about three hours ago. The model isn't the problem. Gartner recently flagged that up to 40% of enterprise agentic AI…

# Insomnia 13.1: Smarter Git Sync for Your API Testing Workflow and More

[Product Releases](/blog/tag/product-releases)Product ReleasesJuly 23, 2026

TL;DR: To get started for free, click here . Before you dig in, you may… A Git Sync experience that fits your API testing workflow, not the other way around. Insomnia 13.1 now reads your .gitconfig, syncing the native git credentials you’ve already configured, so now you just need to connect once,…

# MCP Governance: The Foundation of Your Agentic AI Strategy

[Enterprise](/blog/tag/enterprise)EnterpriseJuly 21, 2026

Recent research from Forrester’s David Mooter makes a few things very clear: the enterprises that win with agentic AI won't be the ones with the most agents — they'll be the ones with the best integration infrastructure behind them. If you've been following the agentic AI wave, you've probably…

# Why Your Kafka Event Streams Need an Event Gateway

[Engineering](/blog/tag/engineering)EngineeringJuly 21, 2026

You would never expose a REST API without an API gateway in front of it. Authentication, rate limiting, observability, access control — these aren't optional extras. They're mandatory, and we've spent the last decade building the API gateway pattern to solve exactly this problem. So here's the…

# Local Previews and Agent-Driven Authoring for Your Konnect Dev Portal

[Engineering](/blog/tag/engineering)EngineeringJuly 21, 2026

The new Konnect Dev Portal Toolkit extension for Visual Studio Code gives you a live, portal-accurate preview of your content right beside the file you are editing. You watch a page take shape exactly as it will appear to your developers, as you type, without ever leaving your local editor. Konnect…

# How to Proxy Every AI Traffic Pattern Through One Gateway

[Enterprise](/blog/tag/enterprise)EnterpriseJuly 17, 2026

Production AI no longer generates one kind of traffic. It generates four patterns, and most teams govern only one. AI traffic management starts with a single decision: proxy AI traffic through one control point instead of letting it flow straight from application code to model providers. Skip that…

# Enforce API Standards with Custom Linting in Kong Insomnia 13

[Engineering](/blog/tag/engineering)EngineeringJuly 17, 2026

As APIs grow across teams, keeping them consistent becomes difficult. Some APIs follow naming conventions and include clear descriptions, while others don’t. Over time, these differences make APIs harder to understand, review, and maintain. That is where API linting helps. Kong Insomnia has already…

# Kong and ModelOp Partner to Deliver Zero-Trust Security for the Agentic Enterprise

[Enterprise](/blog/tag/enterprise)EnterpriseJuly 16, 2026

We're thrilled to announce a strategic technology partnership between Kong and ModelOp . As enterprises rapidly transition into the agentic era, they face a critical challenge: how to deploy AI fast enough to stay competitive without taking on unacceptable regulatory or security risks. Together,…

# Announcing Kong AI Gateway 2.0: Built for the Pace of Agentic AI

[Product Releases](/blog/tag/product-releases)Product ReleasesJuly 16, 2026

We have big news for platform and AI infra teams: Kong AI Gateway 2.0 is available today in private beta . It runs on its own dedicated runtime, ships on its own release cadence, and carries a completely reimagined user experience designed around the way teams actually build with AI: models, MCP…

# Kong Event Gateway 1.2 Brings Field-Level Encryption, Topic Aliasing, and Analytics to Konnect

[Product Releases](/blog/tag/product-releases)Product ReleasesJuly 16, 2026

If you're running Kafka at any real scale, you've probably hit some version of these three problems. Compliance wants specific fields — SSNs, emails, account numbers — locked down, but your consumers still need the rest of the record. Your topic names are load-bearing in ways nobody planned for, so…

# Insomnia’s Agent-Friendly CLI tool, Koh: A Standardized Interface Between Your Agent and Your API Context

[Product Releases](/blog/tag/product-releases)Product ReleasesJuly 15, 2026

TL;DR: Be sure to stay up-to-date with all things Kong Insomnia . Developers aren't writing every request by hand anymore. Claude Code, Codex, and other agentic tools have quietly taken over a job that used to belong to traditional API clients: making the request, reading the response, iterating.…

# Kong API Gateway 3.15: Accelerate API Modernization

[Product Releases](/blog/tag/product-releases)Product ReleasesJuly 14, 2026

Platform teams don't build great infrastructure by writing glue code. They build it by configuring great primitives. But as API footprints grow in scale and complexity, the gap between what a platform needs and what it takes to run it keeps widening: more workarounds, more bespoke scripts, more…

# Kong API Gateway 3.15 Ships Distroless Image

[Product Releases](/blog/tag/product-releases)Product ReleasesJuly 14, 2026

Your security scanner has been yelling at you. Your compliance team has been forwarding the reports. Your platform engineers have been patching OS-level vulnerabilities in Kong's base image that never touched Kong itself. These are the common challenges faced by enterprise customers, especially…
