[Virtual] OPEN SESSION (API): Unleashing GenAI's Potential for Advanced API Linting
Thursday November 14, 2024 9:30am - 9:55am PST
VIRTUAL CloudX -- Expo Innovation Stage
Sridhar Kunisetty, Equinix, Principal Architect

An API linter plays a crucial role in ensuring that API specifications adhere to established standards, best practices, guidelines, and are free from potential errors. It is an essential component in the development process to ensure that APIs are well-designed, consistent, maintainable, reliable, secure and follow the organization's conventions and guidelines.

We present a new approach to API linting by harnessing the power of Generative AI (GenAI). Our solution involves training a Large Language Model (LLM) to act as an Advanced API Linter, capable of not only answering correctness queries but also analyzing API specifications and providing a comprehensive list of errors, violations, and issues.

Unlike traditional API linters, our GenAI solution eliminates the need for complex validation rules and specialized expertise. By training the LLM with our organization's API standards, best practices, and guidelines, we enable it to understand and enforce these rules effortlessly. Moreover, the training process is straightforward, and we can alternatively provide the necessary content as a context in the prompt to the LLM.

One of the key advantages of our GenAI approach is its user-friendliness. Instead of grappling with new syntax or programming languages to define validation rules, users can express their requirements in plain English. This democratizes API linting, empowering developers to improve API quality through self-service and facilitating the seamless adoption of an API-First approach.

During this session, we will showcase a range of use cases that demonstrate how GenAI can be leveraged to achieve advanced API linting capabilities. Additionally, we will explore the potential of utilizing a Small Language Model (SLM) as an alternative to the LLM, opening up new possibilities for API linting efficiency.

Join us as we unveil the future of API linting, where GenAI revolutionizes the development process, enhances API quality, and empowers developers to build robust and reliable APIs effortlessly.

[Virtual] OPEN SESSION (API): Unlocking Live Data Access for AI
Thursday November 14, 2024 10:00am - 10:25am PST
VIRTUAL API World -- OPEN Workshop Stage
Anushrut Gupta, Hasura, Senior Product Manager, Generative AI

“Over the last 3 months, summarize the top billing issues faced by my enterprise customers within the first 30 days of their onboarding.”

On the surface, building an internal AI customer intelligence application that can answer questions like this is a perfect use-case for Gen AI.
However, building a production ready app that retrieves the data (RAG) before hauling it off to your favorite LLM for summarization soon becomes a terrible engineering experience.

The data is spread across 3 places: a tickets database (eg: elastic), a CRM (eg: salesforce) and your user-accounts transactional database (eg: postgres).
In production, your app can’t access the data from these databases directly. Given security & privacy concerns, your app won’t have direct access to these databases.
Making independent retrieval requests to each of these sources and then joining them in memory might be prohibitively expensive and needs a level of query planning to do efficiently.
Moving all data into one location is expensive to build, maintain and govern
Predictable quality is further made hard because underlying data formats and storage interfaces are continuously changing.
Different types of user queries might require additional filtering and joining of data, which becomes hard to generalize.

APIs solve almost all of these very well known challenges. APIs offer standardization and security. APIs can provide a stable contract to interact with underlying data.

And in all likelihood, you already have APIs on these internal and external data sources.

Ironically, while APIs have become a necessity for other parts of the stack, they are clearly not the first thing that AI engineers building RAG reach for.

In this talk, we’ll discuss:
Why API based retrieval doesn’t work well for RAG
What we need from our existing internal and external APIs to make them RAG ready
How we can get existing APIs to become RAG ready without needing to rebuild the APIs

This talk will be technical, with code demos (possibly with some live coding!) and end with key resources (reference architectures, API best practices, tools/technologies) that attendees can take back to their work.

[Virtual] OPEN SESSION (CloudX):: Managing Data Security in Multi-Cloud Environments
Thursday November 14, 2024 10:30am - 10:55am PST
VIRTUAL API World -- Main Stage
Kevin Hunt, Cloud Storage Security, CTO

Ransomware attacks, breaches, data exfiltration, and insider disclosures are occurring every day around the world. Legacy thinking on providing data security has been focused on the application and platform or operating system. This leads to a somewhat chaotic data security landscape that is likely to have holes and missed handoffs. Modern enterprise systems use and store data using the most effective platform that delivers the convenience and performance required. This open-ended approach to data handling should be addressed through an equally open and flexible approach to securing data regardless of where it is stored or how and when it is used.
Businesses should take a holistic view of their data security to ensure that unintended gaps and inconsistencies that may open the door for threat propagation are detected and mitigated. Enacting multiple layers of data management practices ensures that both stored and inflight data is clean.
This keynote will draw on the Data Security Maturity Model (DSMM) to illustrate the challenges developers and users face in the open landscape of current application deployments. Placing a strong focus on a layered framework that provides consistent and robust security for data as it is used, this approach incorporates seamless malware scanning and detection that provides a constant watch for irregularities and threats.

Thursday November 14, 2024 12:00pm - 12:25pm PST
VIRTUAL API World -- Expo Discovery Stage
Aman Sardana, Discover Financial Services, Senior Principal Application Architect

Have you ever wondered what it takes to create resilient and highly available platform services that support mission-critical software systems? Please join me to find out how you can set the right strategy and foundational architecture for building platform services that businesses can trust for their most critical workloads.

Payment systems that support real-time transaction processing are expected to be highly available and highly responsive 24/7/365. These systems must be fault-tolerant and resilient to any failures that might happen during payment transaction processing.
Mission-critical payment systems with distributed architecture often depend on platform services like distributed caching, messaging, event streaming, databases, etc. that should be independently designed for high availability and fault tolerance.
In this talk, I’ll share the approach we took for architecting and designing platform services within the payments domain that can be applied to any domain that supports business-critical processes. This methodological approach starts with establishing a capability view for platform services and then defining the implementation and physical views. You’ll also gain an understanding of other aspects of platform services like provisioning, security, observability, testing, and automation that are important for creating a well-rounded platform strategy supporting business-critical systems.

This is where Green DevOps steps in, offering a powerful solution for building software that is both efficient and environmentally friendly.

Green DevOps refers to the practice of integrating sustainable practices into your software development lifecycle. This means implementing tools, techniques, and methodologies that minimize the environmental impact of software development and delivery. By adopting Green DevOps, you can achieve significant benefits, including:

Reduced energy consumption: Green DevOps practices help optimize resource utilization, leading to lower energy consumption throughout your development process. This not only translates to cost savings but also minimizes the carbon footprint of your software.

Improved resource efficiency: Green DevOps encourages developers to utilize resources wisely, minimizing waste and maximizing efficiency. This can involve practices like code optimization, infrastructure right-sizing, and efficient testing processes.

Enhanced software quality: Green DevOps principles encourage a focus on quality from the very beginning of the development process. This leads to fewer bugs and defects, resulting in software that is more reliable and requires fewer resources to maintain.

I would cover most of this topics in my talk.

In today's micro services world, it is far too common for an API service to explode at an unbounded rate. The journey starts off as a shiny new micro service, which was designed to contain APIs for 1 business entity, becoming so heavily utilized that over time, it evolves and turns into a massive monolith, which contains hundreds of APIs for dozens of business entities. In the early days, new features could be introduced and rolled out within a few hours. Now, a small database schema change takes a few days or weeks to roll out. In this madness, how do you effectively and efficiently decompose and modernize your monolith? This session goes over a real world case study of how a group of 5 engineers decomposed a 160+ API monolith into smaller and focused micro services with 0 outages, 0 downtime, increase in overall service availability from 99.9% to 99.999%, decrease in latencies from 15% to 95% and ability to handle 90x more traffic with a reduced resource footprint (68% reduction in compute and 55% reduction in memory).

[Virtual] OPEN SESSION (API): A World of AI Is a World of APIs; Securing the Most Modern of Modern Apps
Thursday November 14, 2024 1:00pm - 1:50pm PST
VIRTUAL API World -- OPEN Workshop Stage
Cameron Delano, F5, Sr Strategic Architect 
Corey Ball, Moss Adams, Senior Manager - Penetration Testing

F5 secures and optimizes traffic for some of the largest AI projects in the world, and organizations are planning to spend an average of 18% of 2025 IT budgets on AI implementation.
What many are missing is that outside of a few edge cases, nearly all training, usage, attacks, and data loss against AI models come through APIs, and APIs themselves expose critical information about models such as data labels and confidence scores, facilitating model theft, transfer attacks, and other issues unique to securing LLMs.
In this session, we’ll talk about the ties between AI security, APIs, and how to structure a Defense in Depth architecture to secure your AI factory and models from the beginning, rather than after the fact.

Dominik Rampelt, APICHAP, CEO & Co-Founder

Artificial Intelligence is rapidly transforming every facet of our lives, including the way we approach API development. In this talk, we will explore the profound impact AI will have on developers and the necessary steps to harness its full potential. The future of API development will focus heavily on an API-Contract First approach, where developers become architects defining APIs and data flows. The implementation will then be assisted by various AI tools.

Join us to discover how tools like APICHAP enable developers to implement APIs for your services and integrate with any datasource in just a few seconds. Learn how to leverage the power of AI in your daily development work. In the future, the best API developers won't just write code—they'll design the blueprint for AI to follow.

[Virtual] OPEN SESSION (API): Transforming Lending with Open Banking: A Case Study in Building a Cash Flow Underwriting System
Thursday November 14, 2024 2:00pm - 2:25pm PST
VIRTUAL API World -- Expo Discovery Stage
Amol Gote, Innova Solutions, Solutions Architect

In the evolving landscape of financial services, implementing a cash flow underwriting system aims to expand credit access and enhance risk assessment. This session will cover an approach that leverages open banking, machine learning, and dynamic underwriting rules to provide creditworthiness evaluation beyond traditional credit scoring methods. It will cover the case study of iCreditWorks - a Fintech organization where this pattern was implemented.

The system consists of four critical components:

(1) A financial data aggregator to securely link customers' bank accounts, utilizing open banking APIs and traditional integration techniques.

(2) Collaboration with a specialized partner that employs machine learning models to analyze transaction data, generating a comprehensive cash flow score and identifying verifiable income.

(3) Developing and implementing underwriting rules that integrate the cash flow score and income data to make informed lending decisions.

(4) The seamless integration of these components into a mobile application and backend infrastructure, ensuring a user-friendly experience and efficient loan application processing.

This session discusses the cash flow underwriting system's design, implementation, and strategic significance. It highlights its potential to extend credit access by surpassing traditional credit scores and opening new avenues for financial inclusion and risk assessment. It also introduces a technical implementation approach for cash flow underwriting by integrating multiple services and using open banking for bank account linking for transaction data.

[Virtual] OPEN SESSION (CloudX): Shifting the Perspective on Security: Putting Security Back in the Design Process
Thursday November 14, 2024 2:00pm - 2:25pm PST
VIRTUAL CloudX -- Main Stage
Celina Stewart, Neuvik Solutions, Cyber Risk Lead

Although many organizations incorporate security into the Software Development Life Cycle, it is often treated as a compliance requirement rather than a purpose-built feature. Not treating security as a feature during the design process can lead to rework, extra complexity, or investment in functionality that does not actually address risk effectively. Further, poor integration of security can have a negative impact on otherwise well-designed applications and cause friction in user experience.

This talk encourages attendees to go beyond traditional threat modeling and defense-in-depth techniques to incorporate security as a purpose-built feature in applications. Attendees will receive tactical guidance on how to incorporate security proactively in the design process. Techniques discussed will include: how to use the organization’s risk outlook to prioritize security features; how to avoid unnecessary development costs by proactively anticipating friction in user experience; how to evaluate tradeoffs and invest in the security features needed to prevent the greatest risks.
