APIOps is a methodology that integrates DevOps and GitOps principles into API development to improve collaboration, speed up release cycles, and minimize bugs. It aims to provide a more developer-friendly experience by automating processes such as infrastructure provisioning, configuration management, and deployment. By using IaC fundamentals and Git repositories, developers can define API gateway configurations in code, version-control their policies, and deploy in any environment with the same process. However, most existing API gateways are not designed to support this approach, leading to a need for developer-friendly ingress at the end of the line. This is where ngrok's production-grade API gateway and unified ingress come into play, providing a flexible and developer-defined solution that can be used alongside Kubernetes APIOps-ready deployments.
