How I Stopped Coding Repetitive Service Components with Kong

  🦍 The Cloud-Native API Gateway and AI Gateway.

  

The Kong Gateway product allows the complexity of my service-tier APIs to be reduced to a collection of end points (or URIs) focused on meeting a collection of business needs and functionality. Often duplicated components (like authentication, logging, and security) are handled by the gateway and can be removed from the service-tier design. In addition to the common components shown in the original illustration, Kong Gateway offers additional functionality:

• kuma

  🐻 The multi-zone service mesh for containers, Kubernetes and VMs. Built with Envoy. CNCF Sandbox Project.

  

Taking things to a broader level, Kuma is another platform agnostic-OSS solution for service mesh and microservice management – with control plane support of Kubernetes, virtual machines (VM), and even bare-metal environments. Kuma was donated to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) by Kong and still actively contributes to the evolving code base.
