Description

IBM® z/OS Connect Enterprise Edition offers an easy and user-friendly method to harness the capabilities of APIs on your mainframe. By leveraging truly RESTful APIs, you can unlock the potential of your IBM Z® subsystems and rapidly generate APIs that can be utilized in your hybrid cloud strategy, all within a matter of minutes. This allows for the integration of cloud-native functions into Z applications, enhancing their performance and capabilities. The platform simplifies the creation of Swagger-defined APIs, eliminating the need for specialized platform-level skills. With enterprise-grade APIs, you can effectively manage the requests essential for your critical business services. A unified approach to monitoring and auditing all IBM Z APIs ensures consistency and reliability across the platform. Additionally, z/OS® applications can be empowered with cloud-native functionalities, while APIs can be easily invoked from native interfaces within COBOL and PLI programs. Furthermore, this solution promotes agility within your development teams by facilitating parallel development for APIs and services, utilizing source code management tools like Git or RTC/Jazz, ultimately streamlining the entire development process. The capability to integrate these technologies can significantly enhance operational efficiency and responsiveness to market demands.

Description

kgateway is a widely deployed Kubernetes gateway designed to power modern microservices and AI-driven workloads. It serves as a control plane for advanced ingress, API management, and AI gateway use cases. Built on Envoy and open-source foundations, kgateway implements the Kubernetes Gateway API for consistent, cloud-native connectivity. The platform aggregates APIs and applies authentication, authorization, and rate limiting in one centralized layer. Kgateway also protects AI models, tools, and agents by securing LLM consumption and data access. Intelligent routing capabilities support AI inference workloads directly inside Kubernetes clusters. The platform scales from lightweight microgateways to massively parallel centralized gateways. Kgateway supports agent-to-agent and MCP-based communication through a single secure endpoint. It enables omni-directional API connectivity across hybrid and multi-cloud environments. Kgateway helps organizations innovate faster while maintaining security and governance.
