Session + Live Q&A

Modern API Development and Deployment, From API Gateways to Sidecars

Knowing what data and services are available in your business can be challenging. Getting access to all of them in an easy, consistent, secure way is even harder. Maybe you've been using an api gateway to try to bring them all together in one place, but it doesn't feel like quite the right fit?
