Kubernetes (K8s) is an open-source software solution for automating deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. As an increasing number of microservices are deployed on Kubernetes, the need for well-documented, easy to consume, and managed APIs becomes important to develop great applications. The API Operator for Kubernetes in WSO2 API Manager makes APIs a first-class citizen in the Kubernetes ecosystem. Similar to deploying microservices, you can now use this operator to deploy APIs for individual microservices or compose several microservices into individual APIs.
In this webinar, we will discuss how you can expose microservices as managed APIs in Kubernetes with the API Operator, so that you can create an end-to-end solution for your entire business functionality from microservices and APIs, to end-user applications. Discussion topics include:
