The New Approach to API Management

Thanks for reading Glooy News! The process of modernizing application and API delivery has never been easy. Given the impact of the DevOps focus on emphasizing automation, self-service, and the intricate nature of multi-platform and multi-cloud environments, it can be especially challenging these days.

Enterprise organizations aiming to improve the digital experiences of their IT teams—with a focus on integration and innovation—commonly develop APIs and oversee their management through comprehensive API management systems that cover the entire lifecycle. These systems traditionally included responsibilities such as API definition, testing, implementation, formulation of usage policies, documentation, and the creation of API portals. What do organizations need to consider when successfully adapting from a legacy approach to a new normal?

Removing the infrastructure pieces from the application Pod, avoiding forcing the end-developers to understand and configure Istio’s low-level API, and providing additional tenancy, failover, and metrics functionality that large-scale deployments of service mesh require is a large step in the direction of an [ambient] mesh everywhere.
