This is a monthly newsletter related to WSO2 and tech in general.
Hello!
We hope everyone is staying safe! While you’re living out your best socially distanced life, we would like to keep you informed with our latest news. Here are a few things we thought were worth sharing this month:
Seamless GraphQL
GraphQL is all the rage right now. Instead of having multiple endpoints that return fixed data structures, like in REST, GraphQL just has a single endpoint; clients just have to specify what data they need from it. Learn all about exposing GraphQL as managed APIs with security, rate limiting, monitoring, and monetization here.

Kubernetes Visualized
We tried out Kubevious and we think it’s fantastic! It’s an open-source tool that provides a highly user-friendly graphical interface for Kubernetes. It provides hints to operators to identify configurational and operational errors as well as uncover security issues. We also work with K9s, which provides a remarkably user-friendly terminal UI to interact with our Kubernetes clusters. K9s works really well with Kubie, which allows us to connect to multiple Kubernetes clusters simultaneously (making it another immensely useful K8s tool).
Is Your API a Successful One?
APIs sit at the edge between customers and backend services and connect the two to create amazing user experiences. They provide exciting opportunities for businesses large and small. So what does it take to deliver a successful API? Read more. And, should you re-evaluate the strength of your API security? Find out here.

Attracting and retaining customers is key during these post-pandemic times and your CIAM strategy plays a major part in these efforts. Scalability, the ability to comply with data privacy regulations, and transparency with respect to user data should be considered carefully to devise a sound CIAM strategy. Here are some common mistakes developers should steer clear of when designing a CIAM solution. Read our blog.
