AWS API Gateway
Gateway Type When to Use Key Differences
Universal Gateway
● For centralized API
management with advanced
mediation.
● Best for complex API
transformations, security, and
governance.
● Advanced mediation – Routing, transformation,
and enrichment.
● Centralized security & access control – OAuth,
OIDC, SAML.
Kubernetes Gateway
(K8s-Native, Envoy-
Based)
● For K8s-native API
management
● Best for Kubernetes-based
deployments requiring
scalability.
● Replacement for Ingress
● Envoy-powered & CNCF Gateway API –
Kubernetes-native architecture.
● CRD-based configuration – Declarative API
definitions.
● Dynamic scaling with Kubernetes autoscaling
Immutable Gateway
(Lightweight &
Decentralized)
● For lightweight, decentralized,
and edge-ready API
management.
● Best for microservices, IoT, and
offline deployments with
independent gateways.
● Microservice-friendly – Runs alongside services
without a central control plane.
● Secure & immutable – Optimized for
containerized workloads.
● Offline support – Disconnected API processing.
● Edge-ready – Optimized for edge computing &
IoT.

Editor's Notes

  • #1: Welcome, everyone! In this session, we’ll explore how AI is revolutionizing API management across design, testing, governance, and consumption using WSO2 API Manager. Our use case for today is building an AI-powered customer support API, and we’ll walk through how WSO2’s AI-driven capabilities enhance various API lifecycle stages. By the end of this session, you’ll have hands-on experience implementing AI-powered API solutions using WSO2.
  • #6: We’ll focus on WSO2 API Manager as our platform of choice to demonstrate AI’s role in API management. From design to governance, we will leverage AI capabilities within WSO2 to improve efficiency and security.
  • #17: With WSO2 API Manager, API design is not just about defining endpoints—it’s about optimizing them with AI-powered recommendations. This ensures the API we are defining is efficient, scalable, and well-documented.
  • #20: AI prompt I have an old system managing my product inventory, but it’s outdated and needs to be modernised. I need an API that can efficiently handle products and their details - name, description, price, images, etc. while ensuring stock levels stay in sync. Include a way to manage inventory adjustments so stock stays accurate across different locations or sales channels. I want to track transportation fleets in real time. It should handle vehicle locations, route changes, fuel levels, and delivery statuses. The API should sync data across systems and provide live updates. Can you create an API for this scenario?
  • #22: Governance is crucial for managing large-scale APIs. AI automates policy enforcement, reducing human effort and ensuring consistency across teams. We will now explore how to define governance rules and enforce them using AI-powered tools.
  • #26: A governance dashboard helps organizations track API performance and compliance. AI enhances this by proactively identifying issues, reducing security risks, and ensuring APIs remain compliant.
  • #27: CI/CD automation is critical for modern API development. AI ensures that governance is embedded in the pipeline, preventing security and compliance breaches before APIs go live.
  • #33: Discovering the right APIs and integrating them efficiently is crucial. WSO2 API Manager offers AI-driven recommendations, optimizing how APIs are selected and consumed.
  • #35: AI Prompt - Hello! I'm looking to develop an online ecommerce store where I'll need to manage the products details, categories, inventory and the payments.
  • #36: AI Prompt - Hello! I'm looking to develop an online ecommerce store where I'll need to manage the products details, categories, inventory and the payments.
  • #41: AI Prompt Add two new products to the catalog with the below information and update the inventory: Product ID: 12345 Name: Wireless Bluetooth Headphones Price: 79.99 USD Category: Electronics Brand: SoundX Stock: 50 Product ID: 67890 Name: Smart Fitness Watch Price: 129.99 USD Category: Wearables Brand: FitPro Stock: 100 Return the newly added products
  • #43: APIs facilitate B2B collaboration. AI-driven access control and analytics help organizations share APIs securely and efficiently.
  • #48: Branding is more than just a logo—it defines the API’s identity and impacts developer adoption. AI enhances API branding by analyzing developer behavior, suggesting optimized descriptions, and even generating personalized themes in WSO2 API Manager. We’ll explore how AI can dynamically adjust API branding elements to improve visibility and engagement within the Developer Portal.
  • #53: AI Gateway Capabilities - Supports multi vendor routing, prompt engineering capabilities, semantic caching etc.
  • #54: AI agents need APIs to function. By designing APIs to support AI-driven workflows, we can create powerful automation and data-driven applications.
  • #55: MCP is an open protocol that standardizes how applications provide context to LLMs. Think of it like a USB-C port for AI applications—just as USB-C enables seamless connections between devices and peripherals, MCP creates a universal standard for linking AI models to various data sources and tools, ensuring compatibility, efficiency, and flexibility in AI-driven applications.
  • #56: We’ve explored how AI-driven capabilities enhance API management across various stages, from design and testing to governance and branding. WSO2 API Manager integrates AI to automate repetitive tasks, improve security, and optimize API performance. Now, it's time to apply these learnings! Explore WSO2’s AI-powered features in your own API projects, experiment with branding automation, governance enforcement, and AI-driven documentation, and continue innovating in the API space.
