Learn about the benefits of switching to an API gateway model and how those benefits are magnified significantly by choosing a modern, GitOps-driven API gateway.

We Built The Most Modern API Management from Scratch. Here’s How.

Complaining about things that don't work well is easy. What's hard is coming up with a better solution. That statement is true of many things in life, including one we know well at Traefik: API management.

Traefik Hub - API Gateway Perfection

Nowadays, APIs power the internet. We see APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) everywhere: webshops, social networks, mobile apps, government sites and most of the media entertainment is delivered to us over APIs.

Revolutionizing API Operations: A Dive into GitOps-Based API Management

APIs (application programming interfaces) are a hot topic these days with the rise of machine-to-machine communication and AI, microservice-based cloud native architectures. Add to that the never-ending need for efficiency to reuse existing software components and services to build up solutions faster and cheaper without reinventing the wheel. Traditional API management solutions are often slow and suboptimal for efficiency, built with click-operations in mind, leading to stateful and procedura

Why Modern API Management Needs an End-to-End GitOps Strategy

GitOps isn’t just another IT buzzword; it’s quickly transforming how software development operates, making deployments more reliable, repeatable, and automated. GitOps is used to manage infrastructure and workloads, but it hasn’t taken hold in managing APIs. While this modern operations model is used in API development, API management has yet to benefit from GitOps-driven processes, and it’s sorely needed. With the rise of cloud-native development and microservices, a growing majority of develo
