WINDA API Update

This Webinar will provides a guide on how to migrate to the new WINDA API Gateway. The necessary prerequisites, steps for both new and existing WINDA API consumers, guidance for testing and follow-up actions are described in the sections below.

Switch to API Gateway

The WINDA API has transitioned to a new gateway to enhance its reliability, scalability and security. This move aligns with modern best practices in API management, providing a centralised platform for monitoring, securing and optimising API traffic.

The decision to adopt an API Gateway was driven by the need for improved performance and flexibility. The new WINDA API gateway offers several advantages, including:

Enhanced Security: with built-in authentication, rate limiting and threat detection, the new WINDA API gateway ensures a more secure implementation.

Scalability: the new WINDA API gateway can handle increased traffic with ease, ensuring smooth performance during peak usage.

Unified Management: the new WINDA API gateway centralises logging, monitoring and version control, streamlining WINDA API operations and maintenance.

Improved User Experience: by reducing latency and increasing reliability, the Gateway provides a smoother experience for users.

For consumers, this transition means better performance, increased security and increased flexibility for implementation of the new WINDA API functionality.

To minimise disruption, the old WINDA API endpoints will remain operational until 2025-09-30. This should provide ample time for consumers to migrate their integrations to the new WINDA API gateway.
