Kong KONNECT, the first steps

In this video I explain the basics to be able to start working with Kong KONNECT and what it is all about. In this world today we truly need to protect our applications as much as possible and sometimes doing that isn't very easy. Or at least it doesn't seem to. There are many api gateways available out there and Kong is one of them that we have a look at in this video. Remember that if you have any questions about how to use Kong's KONNECT management API, you can always ask me that in the comments section. I can't wait to hear your questions and comments about this video.

Have a good one veryone!
