The healthcare industry is buzzing about FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources). Pronounced “fire,” this widely adopted data standard has been revolutionizing how healthcare information is exchanged. But building a truly modern, secure, and scalable digital health platform takes more…
Behind every smooth user experience is a maze of APIs quietly handling requests, responses, and data flows. This makes APIs critical connectors that enable applications to communicate and share data seamlessly. When these vital conduits fail, the consequences can be severe—system outages, data…
As enterprises increasingly embed AI and Large Language Models (LLMs) into their digital experiences, enforcing robust AI guardrails becomes paramount to safeguard users, protect data, manage operational costs, and comply with regulatory and ethical standards. Think of AI guardrails as essential…
It’s been almost a year since we released our Konnect Terraform provider . In that time we’ve seen over 300,000 installs, have 1.7 times as many resources available, and have expanded the provider to include data sources to enable federated management of your Konnect organization. There have been…
If you build APIs, you’ve probably been in two kinds of conversations. One is the war room, where the team is chasing a latency spike, an outage, or a sudden drop in traffic. The other is the boardroom, where you need to show how the platform is performing, which APIs are growing, and whether…
Calling all builders, tinkerers, and API innovators. The Kong Hackathon is back for API Summit 2025 ! This year, we’re challenging developers worldwide to create projects that don’t just react, they think , adapt , and act . The theme? Agentic AI : solutions that take initiative, make decisions,…
Picture this: you’re in the zone — debugging logic, writing endpoints, testing integrations. But suddenly you’re yanked out of flow: copy pasting cURL commands, flipping between environments, chasing down the right API keys, and juggling half a dozen tools just to make a simple change. It’s clunky…
Kong is thrilled to announce the return of Partner Summit live and in person for the first time since 2022! We’re inviting our global Kong partner ecosystem to come together at our premier event that is shaping the future of APIs, AI, and cloud native architecture. As we navigate massive industry…
Technical debt is a sneaky hang-up that organizations and teams often ignore until it becomes unmanageable. It creeps in slowly, undermines your team’s productivity, and builds up until your product is hard to maintain and scale. Software systems and development cycles are increasingly being driven…
This year, at our in-person API Summit , we’re excited to shine a light on the projects and people who aren’t just implementing Kong, but reinventing it. The Kong Innovator Awards recognize outstanding and future-facing projects from Kong customers. And what better way to be recognized than with a…
Picture this: It's 3 AM, and your phone erupts with alerts. Within minutes, you're drowning in a tsunami of notifications—hundreds of them—while your company's critical services hang by a thread. Your monitoring dashboard looks like a Christmas tree gone wrong, every light blinking red, and you…
Ever wonder how Netflix streams to millions of users without crashing? Or how Amazon powers billions of transactions daily? The secret sauce behind these scalable, resilient behemoths is microservices architecture. If you're a developer or architect wading into the complex world of distributed…
Organizations are going all-in on large language models (LLMs), with research finding 72% anticipate increased LLM spending in the coming year (and about 40% are already investing more than $250,000 USD per year). As enterprises rapidly adopt LLMs to transform customer experiences, automate…
In the last two parts of this series, we discussed How to Strengthen a ReAct AI Agent with Kong AI Gateway and How to Build a Single-LLM AI Agent with Kong AI Gateway and LangGraph . In this third and final part, we're going to evolve the AI Agent with multiple LLMs and Semantic…
In my previous post, we discussed how we can implement a basic AI Agent with Kong AI Gateway. In part two of this series, we're going to review LangGraph fundamentals, rewrite the AI Agent and explore how Kong AI Gateway can be used to protect an LLM infrastructure as well as external functions.…
