Kong Konnect's Control Plane Groups present a comprehensive solution for managing the complexities of API governance across multiple teams within an organization, addressing the challenges of scaling API infrastructure without compromising security, compliance, or operational efficiency. This federated deployment model allows individual teams to independently deploy and manage their APIs while adhering to overarching global policies set by a central governance team, ensuring consistent security and compliance across the board. Control Plane Groups facilitate a balance between centralized governance and decentralized innovation, where teams can operate autonomously without impacting each other, and platform teams can enforce policies globally to minimize operational overhead and streamline onboarding. The model integrates seamlessly with Kong Konnect's features like analytics dashboards and developer portals, making it a robust backbone for a scalable API ecosystem, where enterprise-level security and compliance are maintained, and the speed and autonomy of API deployments are enhanced.
