About the Role
Kong’s API Management suite includes the Kong Enterprise Gateway, the Konnect SaaS platform, and a variety of Managed Gateways in public clouds, such as AWS, Azure, and GCP. This suite of products helps customers in different industries (like finance, banking, e-commerce, airlines, etc.) manage their API platforms and operations at scale. Our customers expect secure, reliable, high-scale, low-latency offerings from Kong, whether running on-premise or in the public cloud.
A critical need for all our customers is to manage API Operations via Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) tools. Kong provides an open-source CLI - deck - that is the centrepiece of API Operations. (Source code for deck is at GitHub - Kong/deck: decK: Configuration management and drift detection for Kong https://github.com/kong/deck. )
Some of the other products that the API Operations toolset includes are:
Terraform-provider https://github.com/Kong/terraform-provider-konnect: Terraform provider for Kong Konnect - Kong’s SaaS product
SDK for Go https://github.com/Kong/sdk-konnect-go: Go SDK for Kong Konnect
SDKs in other languages and tooling to generate SDKs from APIs
