Modern API Strategy: From Gateways to Event Mesh
summary
Claim: APIs and events are jointly managed under Unified API Management combining OpenAPI and AsyncAPI so synchronous REST and event-driven APIs coexist. Event Mesh is a dynamic layer that routes and governs events in real time across cloud, on‑prem and hybrid with smart subscription routing, geo distribution and fault tolerance (DR copies and producer acks to prevent loss). Events become reusable, discoverable assets via catalogs and tagging for governance, enabling real‑time dashboards, risk alerts and massive sale‑scale decoupling used by exchanges and tax systems.
