When service mesh was introduced as a concept, some thought this was the end of APIs - a few even said: "API Management is Dead". However, it was fiction, and the reality is that APIs are a crucial attribute of modern digital enterprises.
Mesh architecture is fueling distributed patterns like microservices and Web 3.0. As a result, sub-patterns such as data, event, and identity mesh are added to the catalog. At the same time, mesh implementations are improving by utilizing high-performance low-level protocols like eBPF.
In this session, Asanka will deep-dive into the mesh architecture and look at the role of APIs from a digital craftsman's view.
