Open Source Migration Practices and Patterns
Table of Contents ► Introduction ► Benefits of Migrating to Open Source ► Core Practices for Open-Source Migrations ► Conclusion Section 1 Introduction The software landscape has undergone a significant shift in recent years, witnessing the burgeoning popularity of open-source software (OSS). This collaborative development model — where the source code is freely accessible and modifiable — has revolutionized how software is built, distributed, and utilized.
API Gateways - Defining the Future of Cloud-Native Applications
The emergence of cloud-native applications has made API gateways crucial for secure and scalable communication between microservices. However, the rise of the Kubernetes Gateway API and the Envoy Gateway project is pushing for standardisation and interoperability in this space.
The API Gateway and the Future of Cloud Native Applications
The rapid growth of cloud native applications that are smaller, more distributed and designed for highly dynamic environments has turned API gateways into indispensable intermediaries for driving digital initiatives. At the same time, the emergence of the Kubernetes Gateway API, with support from the Envoy Gateway project, is driving a shift towards standardization and interoperability.

Twitter API keys found leaked in over 3,200 apps
By Nuwan Dias (pictured) Vice President & Deputy CTO at WSO2 In the news, Twitter API keys have been found leaked in over 3,200 apps. The main cause of these data leaks is developers embedding keys in applications. This is compounded by the dearth of platforms that provide an easy-to-use, safe mechanism for handling keys on a large scale. The solution is to provide developers with a platform where they are free from the complexities of dealing with security.
5 Ways That Open Source Benefits API Management
WSO2 sponsored this post. Nuwan Dias Nuwan is Vice President and Deputy CTO-API Management and Integration at WSO2. He is a part of the architecture team that drives the development efforts of WSO2’s API management platform. Digitally driven organizations increasingly expose their services as APIs, for better reusability and faster innovation. Today, APIs live at the heart of many systems — which has led to widespread API adoption.

He co-founded WSO2 in 2005 in order to reinvent the way enterprise middleware is developed, sold, delivered and supported through an open source model. The recent constraints on brick-and-mortar businesses have pushed organizations to accelerate their plans for moving operations to the digital world — often shrinking timelines from years to months.
Delivering a Successful API: Know What it Takes
Modern businesses are highly consumer-driven. Delivering value to our customers should, therefore, be our first priority. Making the tasks of our customers more convenient and efficient should be our primary goal. To do that, we need ways to figure out “what” exactly makes our customers more efficient and brings them convenience in their tasks. This requires a lot of trial and error.
