Kong Gateway Enterprise 3.11 introduces several new features aimed at enhancing API and event stream capabilities, including advanced data orchestration via the new Datakit plugin, support for CyberArk Secrets Manager, and sticky-sessions as a new load balancer algorithm. The Event Gateway now integrates with Solace PubSub+ for event streaming and introduces Kafka schema validation to ensure data quality. The update also expands Konnect's networking capabilities with VPC Peering and Route 53 Private DNS support for Dedicated Cloud Gateways, offering simpler and cost-effective private connections. Active Tracing in Konnect is set to receive improvements, allowing users to more effectively diagnose and resolve performance issues by aligning logs with request timelines. These enhancements collectively aim to provide more powerful, secure, and efficient management of APIs and event-driven architectures.
