Introducing Portal MCP Server — a governed, per-portal MCP server (plus OAuth 2.0 connections) that lets agents discover and read Dev Portal content without scraping HTML, while respecting existing access controls. The post also recaps three related capabilities that already shipped: agent-ready…
Enterprise AI governance requires a composed stack connecting high-level risk and compliance oversight with real-time runtime enforcement. While oversight tools manage inventories, approvals, and evidence, AI gateways apply policy controls directly to live model, API, MCP, and agent traffic.…
Kong and Straiker are partnering to help enterprises secure AI agents across the traffic, tools, and systems they already manage through Kong AI Gateway . The integration brings Straiker into the Kong ecosystem, giving customers a way to add deeper security visibility, testing, LLM runtime…
In July, we announced Kong AI Gateway 2.0 in private beta and made a promise: freed from the API gateway release train, AI Gateway would ship at the speed of the AI ecosystem itself. We said you'd see the evidence quickly. Here it is. Kong AI Gateway 2.0 is now generally available , and…
You swapped in a better model. You fine-tuned it. You threw more tokens at the problem. And still — your agents hallucinate, break under load, and deliver answers that were accurate about three hours ago. The model isn't the problem. Gartner recently flagged that up to 40% of enterprise agentic AI…
Recent research from Forrester’s David Mooter makes a few things very clear: the enterprises that win with agentic AI won't be the ones with the most agents — they'll be the ones with the best integration infrastructure behind them. If you've been following the agentic AI wave, you've probably…
We're thrilled to announce a strategic technology partnership between Kong and ModelOp . As enterprises rapidly transition into the agentic era, they face a critical challenge: how to deploy AI fast enough to stay competitive without taking on unacceptable regulatory or security risks. Together,…
The new Konnect Dev Portal Toolkit extension for Visual Studio Code gives you a live, portal-accurate preview of your content right beside the file you are editing. You watch a page take shape exactly as it will appear to your developers, as you type, without ever leaving your local editor. Konnect…
The MCP demo impressed the room. Then someone asked how 5,000 employees would connect to 40 MCP servers, and the answer was: one OAuth consent screen at a time. Per user. Per server. No central policy, no unified audit trail, and nothing stopping a personal account from getting wired into a work…
A new version of KAi, the Kong Konnect agentic platform assistant, is live. This is the release that turns KAi from a knowledgeable guide into something that can actually build inside your org — of course, within guardrails that you control. Until now, KAi could tell you how to set up a service,…
AI agents are spreading across organizations rapidly. Each agent needs secure access to different Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. Authentication becomes complex. Scaling creates bottlenecks. The dreaded "too many endpoints" problem emerges. You face a classic AI infrastructure headache. The…
Every few months, a frontier AI lab makes a move that says the quiet part out loud: agents are only as useful as the systems they can reach. The latest example is Anthropic's acquisition of Stainless, the company behind the tooling that turns API specs into SDKs and MCP servers. Anthropic's own…
Customers today face significant challenges as their Kubernetes environments scale. The proliferation of microservices, external integrations, and new AI workloads increases traffic volume and connectivity complexity, creating material risks to performance and availability. The core issue is a lack…
AI agents are only as capable as the tools they can reach. When an agent needs to query a database, file a support ticket, or pull data from a CRM, it has to find the right tool, authenticate, and invoke it — all at runtime. The Model Context Protocol (MCP) standardizes how agents communicate…
Key takeaways - An MCP server is a lightweight process that exposes tools, resources, and prompts to AI applications over a standardized protocol. - It acts as the bridge between an LLM-powered client and an external system — a database, API, file system, or SaaS product. - The protocol…
Three-quarters of enterprises are now piloting or deploying AI agents. But here’s the problem: actually integrating those agents with enterprise applications is proving to be one of the hardest parts of the whole endeavor. That’s the core finding of a recent Gartner research note, How to Integrate…
