me | 2023-2024 life developments |
|
I don’t post that much about my personal life on this blog. I also haven’t posted much at all for the last few months. This will be one of the few posts I talk about my own life, and I wanted to share my experience encase anyone else is going through something similar. In July 2023 my wife and I discovered we going to have another child. We already have two amazing daughters (11 and 13 at time of writing).

 | API Connect - Harnessing the Canary |
|
Canary deployments are a way to roll out changes to a service in a controlled manner, by gradually introducing the changes to a small group of users before rolling them out to the entire user base. API Connect can provide the functionality to different versions of a downstream service using a simple piece of gateway script. |

| API Connect Cluster object - disabling Portal/Analytics/Gateway |
|
When deploying API Connect in OpenShift you can deploy the API Connect Cluster Object. Sometimes this is referred to as the TopLevelCR. This will deploy a management, analytics, portal, and gateway. If you are using CP4I it will also auto configure it as well. However, there are times that all subcomponents are not required. |

| API Connect Health Check Endpoints to monitor system stability |
|
As an API Connect platform management team being able to confirm the API Manager and Gateway are working as expected is critical. The API Manager and the Gateway both have key endpoints that should be monitored to determine platform health. |
