As organizations adopt AI to enhance digital experiences, robust governance is critical. Unchecked AI usage can lead to security risks, compliance issues, and unpredictable costs—challenges similar to API management. This session explores how proven API patterns can govern AI effectively, ensuring observability, security, and policy enforcement at scale.

We introduce the AI Gateway—a control plane for AI interactions that enables rate limiting, authentication, policy enforcement, and cost control. By leveraging insights from API gateways and service meshes, we show how to enforce responsible AI usage while maximizing innovation.

Learn how to implement AI governance with cloud-native tooling and future-proof your AI strategy in a Kubernetes-powered world.
