Summary

Kong has introduced Dedicated Cloud Gateways (DCGWs), a vendor-managed solution that allows organizations to deploy API gateways across multiple cloud service providers (CSPs) like AWS, Azure, and now Google Cloud Platform (GCP), offering flexibility beyond traditional CSP vendor solutions. DCGWs are designed to address the limitations of single-CSP solutions by providing enterprise-level functionality, such as platform-grade features, production-grade deployments, and enhanced security, while maintaining the ease of cloud service deployment. The latest updates to DCGWs include custom plugin streaming, which streamlines plugin management, and a commitment to high availability with a 99.95% service level agreement. This development aims to enable organizations to achieve multi-cloud growth efficiently and securely, with Kong providing dedicated support and infrastructure-as-code offerings to enhance API management workflows.
