Breaking the Silo – Scalable API Governance and Platform Automation with GitOps
In this session, I’ll walk through how we helped a large enterprise address fragmented API
practices and inconsistent governance by building a platform-first approach to API delivery.
Teams were deploying microservices independently on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) with no consistent routing, security, or visibility. We implemented a GitOps-powered framework that allowed teams to integrate a lightweight, Kubernetes-native gateway with their services, while inheriting organizational standards like rate limiting, JWT auth, routing consistency, and metadata tagging—without any manual ticketing or bottlenecks.
The platform approach enabled decentralized development with centralized governance,
accelerating service onboarding while ensuring every API remains secure, discoverable, and compliant by design.
Zero fluff.
