Service Catalog: Unifying Discovery for API Consumers and Producers

How Kong Konnect’s unified Catalog becomes your system of record for APIs and services—link specs, service metadata, integrations, and governance.

Kong Konnect’s unified Catalog brings APIs and services into a single system of record. Learn how to link API specs to running services, integrate with GitHub/Datadog, and apply governance with scorecards.

Key topics covered:
- APIs ≠ services: design-first APIs vs running services
- Unified Catalog: link APIs to services; custom attributes
- Integrations: GitHub, Datadog, custom data sources
- OpenAPI & AsyncAPI support
- Governance: scorecards, maturity targets, ownership
- Discovery: find shadow/zombie APIs
- Dev Portal vs Catalog: audiences and publishing
