How an API Gateway and a Service Mesh Work Together in the Cloud Native World

About this Webinar

As service mesh technology has emerged, the industry has often failed to recognize how this pattern played with the API gateway pattern. Gateways and service meshes have their utility, and skillfully taking advantage of both allows us to build highly scalable, secure, and reliable applications.

In this webinar, Kong Senior Solutions Engineers Ahmed Koshok and Ned Harris illustrate the differences between API gateways and service mesh — and how they work together.

Key Takeaways
