A
Apis
are
the
building
blocks
of
modern
applications,
they're
how
humans
and
applications
exchange
data
and
send
commands
over
the
internet
they're
a
bit
like
the
human
nervous
system,
request,
response,
request
response
and
they
become
the
neural
network
of
the
cloud
behind
every
interface,
millions
of
apis
power,
the
experience
and
as
the
customer
experience
becomes,
the
focus.
The
role
of
apis
has
never
been
more
crucial.
Api
traffic
accounts
for
more
than
80
percent
of
global
internet
traffic.
A
Yet
we're
still
in
the
early
days
we're
on
the
verge
of
trillions
of
connected
apis
and
the
number
of
interactions
between
Services
is
only
increasing.
Keeping
trillions
of
reliable
connections
running
and
secure,
24
7
will
be
a
mind-blowing
task.
It's
a
Jungle,
Out
There
apis
need
to
become
smarter
and
so
do
the
ways
we
build
run
and
services
we're
the
builders
and
Visionaries
blazing
a
trail
for
together
we
can
innovate.
Let's
go.
B
B
B
B
B
They
were
able
to
innovate
very
fast,
whether
it's
creating
Cloud
infrastructures,
whether
it's
moving
DVD
to
online
streaming
and
those
are
just
from
few
years
ago.
So
you
could
imagine
what
they
are
today
now
a
lot
of
us
a
lot
of
our
organizations,
our
teams
they
want
to
build.
We
all
want
to
build
this
innovation
and
so
how
we
build
the
future.
How
we
build
organizations
of
the
future
is
three
main
components:
number
one:
it's
powered
by
software,
no
matter
what
business,
what
vertical?
B
What
Geo
it
won't
matter,
what
it
matters
that
is
powered
by
software
software,
it's
programmable,
exactly
like
our
nervous
system.
It
rewire
itself
based
on
the
most
recent
needs
things
we
don't
need
anymore
start
to
detach
the
software
is
programmable.
Like
the
nervous
system,
the
number
two
companies
are
becoming
smarter,
smarter
because
they
make
decision
on
data.
It's
data,
driven
decisions
like
our
nervous
system.
B
B
But
it
really
started
in
2002
with
the
API
mandate
and
it
start
to
grow
exponentially
from
there.
Now.
You
would
think,
and
that's
why
we're
all
here.
Yes,
of
course,
right
we
believe
in
API.
We
want
to
do
more
apis,
but
sometimes
we
forget
what's
coming
and
where
are
we
well?
We
are
just
at
the
beginning.
B
There
is
a
massive
exponential
way
coming
at
us.
While
it
was
2002
in
the
history
of
time.
That's
nothing
and
how
do
we
know?
We
know
it
because
every
time
we
talk
with
customers,
we
share
thought
with
customers.
They
everybody's
a
different
time
of
their
Journey.
You
might
have
10
apis,
you
might
have
5
000
apis
500.
B
B
B
This
thing
can
go
down
TTM
time
to
mitigations.
Those
are
the
data,
the
objective
that
has
a
platform
we
gotta
achieve
and
so
how
we
do
that,
how
we
keep
our
connection
secure,
how
we
can
observe
them
at
scale
when
we
have
billions
of
those
how
we
govern
the
access
control,
how
we
encrypt
traffic
so
we're
always
in
compliance.
B
B
This
is
an
example
where
Papa
Jones
during
the
pandemic
that
5000
locations
five
thousand
locations
the
digital
apps.
They
start
to
produce
70
percent
of
their
revenue,
making
the
highest
grossing
month
through
this
digital
channels,
and
they
were
able
to
accelerate
their
productivity
three
times
over.
B
B
Imagine
it's
evening,
you
finish
work,
you
go
and
open
your
NASDAQ
app
and
you
go
and
look
at
all
your
stocks.
Hopefully
we
haven't
lost
too
much
this
year
and
then
boom.
You
remember
that
you
have
a
presentation
the
day
after
completely
forgot,
so
you
rush
and
you
open
your
mirror,
and
you
start
to
sketch
the
talking
points
for
that
tomorrow.
Presentations
but
you're
getting
a
little
bit
tired.
So
you
rush
down
to
the
Starbucks
and
open
till
late.
B
B
It's
called
a
very
fine
phone
verified
telephones
that
was
very
fun,
and
now
you
throw
the
phone
and
you
pay
in
a
second
through
digitals.
All
those
are
API
transactions.
Then
you
go
back
up.
Things
are
a
little
bit
cold.
You
turn
on
the
thermostat,
Honeywell
come
to
rescue
and
then
of
course,
you
have
ordered
that
Ikea
furniture
online
that
you
still
have
to
build.
B
It's
all
connected,
and
so
we've
been
talking
about
this
peripheral
nervous
system
and
how
that
translates
into
apis
and
the
digital
experience
we
are
creating.
So
what's
missing,
what's
the
big
idea,
What's
missing,
it's
a
central
nervous
system,
the
one
that
manage,
connect
and
secure
orchestrate
them
all.
That's
what's
missing
in
softer.
B
And
that's
with
the
feedback
of
all
of
you.
We
build
can't
connect
and
Concord
neck
was
launched
a
year
ago
and
we've
done
tremendous
Improvement
the
last
year,
with
your
feedback,
like
we
say
in
Silicon
Valley,
it's
kicking
in
and
connect
is
now
deploying
over
300
new
deployments
per
month
and
our
vision
of
connect
is
our
vision
and
your
vision
of
having
a
central
nervous
system.
B
You
have
to
have
a
network
effect
and
you
have
to
start
from
the
peripheral
side
of
the
house
and
so
what's
better
than
starting
with
the
number
one
API
technology
in
the
world
with
Kong
Gateway
Cong
Gateway
is
used
by
over
30
000
companies
worldwide,
and
for
this
is
for
what
we
can
see.
There
is
much
more
out
there
and
to
put
things
in
perspective.
B
When
we
compared
that
throughput
with
Kong
that's
17
times
more
Kong
produce
Alone
17
times
more
from
what
we
can
see.
That's
hell
of
a
scale
and
that's
the
scale
that
is
required
for
the
years
to
come,
so
I
want
to
show
you
the
vision
of
connect.
It's
also
where
we
are,
but
where
we're
going
together
started
with
con
Gateway,
but
we
have
a
lot
of
other
API
runtimes
calling
grass
Kong
mesh.
B
We
have
more
obviously
coming,
and
so
we
started
with
having
a
universal
management
plan
that
you
can
manage
conch,
but
whatever
other
use
case
come
in
the
future
mesh
or
Ingress
load
balancing
that
traffic
for
kubernetes
clusters,
it's
a
multi-run
time
management
play
that
can
do
provisioning.
Can
issues
policies,
That's
Unique,
it
does
not
exist
in
the
industry,
that's
our
vision,
so
you
can
support
all
kind
of
nervous
system
use
cases.
B
Then
we
build
the
core,
and
this
is
the
one
that
I'm
very
excited
about
it.
Once
we
run
all
our
traffic
at
the
peripheral
level,
then
we
build
the
core
of
the
platform
and
at
the
core
there
is
the
API
registry.
What
we
call
service
up
and
I
know
how
many
of
you
I
always
ask
the
question:
how
many
apis
do
we
have
who's
using
them
where
they
are
and
it's
hard
to
get
that
answer?
We've
been
trying
for
many
many
years
and
folks
use
different
things.
B
And
so
this
is
a
very
strategic
real
estate
that
every
platform
leader
every
technology
leader
believe
in
it
and
so
how
we
can
build
a
system
of
Records.
We
can
do
that
because
we
have
the
run
times.
We
are
approximating
already
old
apis
and
we
can
do
that
in
real
time
and
keeping
an
up-to-date
system
of
record
because
we
are
processing
the
traffic.
So
we
can
tell
you
every
second
which
apis
you
have
running
and
those
are
the
one
that
matters,
not
the
zombie
one,
and
we
can
do
it
because
we
have
the
run
time.
B
So
we
have
this
connection
and
to
end,
and
once
we
have
the
spine
once
we
have
the
system
of
Records,
then
we
can
apply
all
sort
of
governance
and
access
control
and
federations,
because
we
know
that
that's
all
we
got
that's
our
system
of
record
and
number
two.
We
got
a
lot
of
data,
and
so
we
can
build
a
data
platform,
so
we
can
show
observability
and
it's
not
just
analytics
and
inside
it's
business
intelligence.
It's
the
health
of
our
apis,
which
API
is
not
documented,
which
API
is
missing.
B
B
We
can
show
all
sort
of
things
and
then
correlate
all
of
them
because
we
have
the
system
of
Records,
so
all
of
that
is
Unified
through
great
dashboards,
but
connect
itself
it's
programmable.
Of
course
we
use
all
our
technology.
We
use
con
gateway
to
run
connect.
We
use
Chrome
mesh
to
run
connect,
we
use
all
our
stuff,
but
it's
programmable
itself,
it's
an
API.
So
on
top
we
can
build
all
sort
of
applications
to
expand
our
API
power.
Today
we
have
the
developer
portal,
but
we
can
do
API
logs.
B
B
That's
the
ultimate
platform,
that's
our
vision
and,
of
course
we
want
our
apis
to
get
consumed.
So
insomnia,
title
integrated
with
connect
allows
us
to
consume
our
apis
and
then
last
but
not
least,
once
we
have
all
those
apis
running,
we
want
to
publish
some
of
them
and
monetize
and
maybe
have
these
different
digital
streams,
but
all
they
say
you
know
build
it
and
that
will
come
with
below
this
API.
B
Nobody
never
comes
so
what
we
want
to
do
is
build
a
universal
API
store,
so
you
can
publish
in
a
universal
Place
millions
of
developers
that
can
consume
things
easily,
with
kind
of
the
same
credentials.
Same
credit
cards
like
an
app
store,
and
we
can
do
that
because
we
have
all
the
sorts
of
true
all
togethers.
B
Obviously
we're
just
getting
started
getting
a
lot
of
feedback
improving
every
quarter,
but
this
is
where
the
award
is
going
and
we
want
to
go
with
these
Visions
with
all
of
you.
So
let's
get
now
Gabriella
on
stage
to
show
us
what
can't
connect
looks
like
managing
con
gate
to
Enterprise
3.0.
Let's
welcome
Gabrielle
on
stage.
B
C
Hearing
you
talk
about
an
API
system
of
record,
really
resonate
with
me.
I,
don't
know
if
you
know
this,
but
on
the
side
I've
been
Moonlighting
as
a
Chief
Architect
at
Kong,
Airways
how's
it
going
Kong
Airways
has
taken
off
since
we
started
using
Kong's
products
and
the
latest
product
we've
been
using
from
them
is
connect.
We've
been
using
connect
to
manage
all
our
internal
external
and
partner
apis.
C
B
Nice,
let's,
let's
go
look
yeah.
C
Of
course,
let's
Dive
In,
this
is
the
cargo
service
and
it
provides
everything
that
you
need
right
at
your
fingertips.
One
of
the
areas
I
like
looking
at
first
is
the
continuous
traffic
coming
through
the
service.
You
can
see
that
the
continuous
traffic
is
coming
from
two
service
versions
in
production
and
one
that's
in
staging
as
we
go
through.
You
can
see
that
most
of
the
traffic
is
coming
through
V2.
So,
let's
dive
in
and
check
the
traffic
out
of
V2
in
V2,
you
can
see
that
most
of
the
traffic
is
coming
through
200.
C
C
Custom
reports
is
as
easy
as
a
couple
clicks,
and
if
we
look
at
one
that
I've
already
made,
we
can
see
that
it
provides
a
little
bit
more
Rich
functionality
than
we
saw
on
the
pre-built
reports
per
usual.
I
will
go
in
and
Export
the
report
no
waiting
to
get
a
coffee.
While
you
wait
for
the
report
to
render,
instead,
it
was
immediately
downloaded,
as
you
can
see
in
the
bottom
left,
Gago.
C
C
C
Great
question
it's
coming
from
developers
and
those
developers
are
using
connects
developer
portal
that
we've
built
upon
I
actually
built
a
system
during
lunch.
Actually,
yesterday,
just
yesterday
made
this
whole
system,
but
it's
a
little
Bare
Bones.
So
I
think
this
is
a
great
opportunity
to.
Let
me
show
you
how
easy
it
is
to
add
a
service
going
back
to
the
cargo
service.
C
Works
at
Kong
and
he's
using
the
Kong
Airways
developer
portal.
Here
you
can
see
that
cargo
was
published
just
that
quickly
and
Michael
will
go
in
to
V2
as
we've
been
using,
and
you
can
see
that
documentation
is
right
here,
front
and
center
for
him
as
the
Chief
Architect.
My
team
has
gone
in
and
created
API
standards
that
we've
pushed
to
the
dev
portal,
so
that
developers
like
the
ones
that
created
the
cargo
service,
adhere
to
these
very
detailed
and
high
quality
documentation
as
Michael
I
register
for
the
application
Augie.
What
should
we
call?
It.
C
C
C
C
B
B
So
we
can
make
our
companies
built
and
run
like
a
nervous
system.
We
got
all
the
peripheral
pieces,
we
got
thousands
of
them
now
with
our
central
nervous
system.
We
can
move
into
that
future
that
we
saw
before
built
on
software
on
data
and
data
is
also
cyber
secure.
It's
programmable,
it's
smarter
and
it's
safe,
and
we
can
now
all
do
it
with
the
central
nervous
system,
so
we
can
make
our
company
going
from
Silo
pipes
and
everything
is
kind
of
disconnected
and
make
it
smarter,
like
neural
connectivity.
Thank
you.
B
It's
incredible
the
work
that
we've
been
doing
with
our
partner
of
the
year
AWS
has
been
phenomenal
for
our
customers
sharing,
so
many
stories
moving
workload
to
the
cloud
helping
the
coupling
from
monolithic
to
micro
services
AWS
this
year
is
our
most
successful
partner.
We're
very
thankful
for
that,
but
the
one
more
thing
is
that
today,
100
of
your
AWS
committed
spend
is
now
usable
on
any
Kong
products.
B
B
Welcome
and
thanks
thank
you,
for
you
know,
partner
of
the
year
yeah.
Thank
you
very
much
appreciate
it.
So
we
maybe
we
go
back
and
you
know
there's
a
lot
of
folks
technical
leaders
that
you
know
your
career
is
outstanding
and
maybe
I
want
to
know
more
on
a
personal
level.
You
know
the
inflection
points
on
how
you
you
became,
who
you
are
today.
D
I've
been
at
this
for
a
while.
That's
one
thing:
I
had
a
full
head
of
hair
when
I
started.
My
family
knows
that
I
think
I
have
a
couple.
Inflection
points,
I
mean
so
one,
and
you
hear
this
from
a
lot
of
people.
Is
you
got
to
be
willing
to
try
new
things
you
got
to
want
to
learn
and
I
was
lucky
enough
early
in
my
career
to
have
bosses
who,
let
me
just
do
things.
Let
me
go,
try
things.
Let
me
fail
even
when
they
knew
I
was
going
to
do
it.
D
They
teach
me
lessons
that
way
and
I
thought
that
really
changed.
My
whole
perspective
on
taking
risk
and
so
I
think
part
of
what
really
worked
for
me
was
just
take.
Some
risks
go.
Try
some
things.
I've
done
big
companies,
I've
done
small
companies,
I've
done
startup
I.
Think
that
really
gives
you
valuable
experience.
You
were
talking
about
the
the
neural
workings
of
the
brain
and
these
things
one
of
the
things
your
brain
does.
Is
it
pattern
matches
really?
Well,
it
takes
that
data.
You
were
talking
about
and
it
pattern
matches.
B
Nice,
nice,
it's
like
it's
like
an
apis
too
right.
You
have
four
tolerance
and
all
that
built
in,
and
so
then
it
gets
you
to
your
WS
right
now:
Vice
President
ws,
and
what
you're
working
on
AWS
so.
D
As
you
said,
I'm
the
vice
president
kubernetes,
so
all
things
kubernetes
are,
are
in
my
purview.
It's
an
interesting
job
for
a
couple
of
different
reasons,
one
of
which
is
kubernetes
is
a
massive
open
source
project.
There's
a
lot
of
Engagement
with
the
community
that
we
are
responsible
for
as
an
organization.
Eks
is
the
core
platform
that
we
have
it's
it's
been
a
very
successful
product
for
us
and
we've
been
extending
the
the
breadth
of
that
product
over
time.
So
you
have
sort
of
eks
the
core
AWS
service.
B
D
Yeah
I
mean
we.
We
appreciate
your
business
I
love
partnering
with
you
and
I.
Think
one
of
the
things
that
we
do,
because
we
are
obsessed
about
our
customers
and
making
sure
that
they're
successful
and
our
partners,
we
have
people
who
are
dedicated
to
Kong
people
who
actually
spend
their
time
understanding.
What's
working
well
for
you,
where
are
you
seeing
challenges?
What
can
we
do
to
make
this
a
more
successful
expansive
system
that
meets
the
needs
of
both
of
our
shared
customers?
What.
B
What
are
they,
what
are
one
of
the
best
practice
you
see
with
all
we
have
a
lot
of
customers
in
common
bringing,
but
also
maybe
specific
customers.
You
know
customer
wants
to
build
applications
that
are
resilient,
especially
platform
teams
or
architect,
teams,
they're,
secure,
they're,
safe
and,
and
they
run
albums
containers
technology
and
how
how
WS
eks?
How
is
helping
building
those
applications
and
how
we're
building
it
together.
Yeah.
D
I
think
part
of
it
is
that
we
have
a
lot
of
things
built
in
by
the
so
one
of
the
things
that's
great
about
ecass
is
a
managed
service.
Is
some
of
that
undifferentiated
heavy
lifting
that
people
would
normally
have
to
do
build
their
own
processes
around?
We
take
care
of
right,
so
we
offload
work
to
let
you
focus
on
what's
important
to
you
and
then
we
can
provide
you
SLA
guarantees
around
that
control,
plane
that
we're
managing.
We
can
wrap
that
with
our
security.
D
It
really
helps
people
to
kind
of
take
a
step
back
from
some
of
the
things
they're
less
familiar
with,
or
they
don't
want
to
have
to
spend
the
time
on
and
focus
on
their
product
on
building
the
things
that
actually
matter
to
them.
So
that
gets
you
started
and
then
wrap
with
that.
We
have
Blueprints
and
other
technologies
that
we've
provided
to
help
people
kind
of
understand.
D
What
is
a
good
best
practice
for
observability
for
scalability
or
security
for
your
workloads
as
you're
deploying
those
on
the
system
and
that's
a
we
have
a
bunch
of
folks
out
here
today.
Actually,
the
booth
who
would
be
happy
to
walk
you
through
the
details
of
all
those
pieces,
but
that's
how
we
do
that
is
we.
We
really
work
with
our
customers
and
our
partners
to
provide
a
set
of
key
tasks
that
you
can
follow
to
make
sure
that
you're
on
the
right
track.
As.
B
Well,
we're
very
happy,
p
and
I
know
a
lot
of
customers
that
we
help
moving
to
to
Kong
technology
with
also
the
AWS
help.
They're
also
super
happy,
so
I
want
to
thank
you
for
the
great
partnership
and
and
hopefully
more
more
to
cams
for
us
and
more
years
to
come
for
us
even
bigger.
Thank
you.
Yeah
thank.
B
It's
a
multi-deca
journey,
we're
just
getting
started,
but
I
feel
we
are
all
writing
the
beginning
of
a
new
era,
a
truly
API
ERA,
with
a
true
system
of
record
that
makes
our
company
programmable
data
driven
secure,
like
our
nervous
system,
so
we
can
build
those
organizations
and
make
them
the
most
advanced
ones
on
the
planets.
Thank
you.
