Building APIs in the AI Era

Track: Cloud Native
Abstract
How can architects and software developers use AI to transform the process of developing APIs? Our discussion in this session will center on how AI is revolutionizing software development, with an emphasis on how AI assistants can be incorporated into the process of creating APIs. We will look at how AI tools can improve testing, speed up code generation, maintain stronger security, and maximize performance. Through a series of demonstrations, attendees will learn how to best incorporate AI-driven solutions into their API projects to maximize output, reduce time-to-market, and maintain quality standards. Come learn how AI is a disruptive force in the evolution of API development, not just a small improvement.
