Balancing What Your Customer Wants Versus What They Need As An API Service Provider
Balancing What Your Customer Wants Versus What They Need As An API Service Provider
I always enjoy conversations about API management providers or more specifically what API gateway providers should or shouldn’t be providing as they work to specialize or be everything to everyone. Today’s post was triggered by my friend James Higginbotham Tweeting about API gateway providers trying to do everything, but this narrative also reflects what I see over and over as I talk to different enterprise organizations about their API operations. As an API platform provider, I see enterprise organizations asking for more features, while in the same breath complain about the bloat, complexity, and lock-in of other solutions. I think we like to poke at API gateway providers for trying to do everything, but they are just doing this in response to customer request, as well as analyst expectations—granted. Enterprise organiations should learn to say no from time to time, but I think we should be poking at enterprises unwillingness to do the hard work needed, as well as investor pressure on API service providers to deliver what customers need.

Identity management for WireGuard
Identity management for WireGuard
Since its inclusion in the Linux kernel, the WireGuard VPN tunnel has become increasingly popular. In general, WireGuard is simpler to configure than other VPNs, but the approach that it takes to authentication can present some challenges. Each node in a WireGuard network has a cryptographic key that serves as the node's identity; nodes that do not know each other's keys cannot directly communicate. Keeping track of these keys and distributing them to the other nodes in a mesh network quickly becomes a chore as the network grows. Fortunately, there are now several open-source tools that can automate the management of these keys and make using WireGuard easier for both administrators and end users.

Latacora - Cryptographic Right Answers
Latacora - Cryptographic Right Answers
We’re less interested in empowering developers and a lot more pessimistic about the prospects of getting this stuff right. There are, in the literature and in the most sophisticated modern systems, “better” answers for many of these items. If you’re building for low-footprint embedded systems, you can use STROBE and a sound, modern, authenticated encryption stack entirely out of a single SHA-3-like sponge constructions. You can use NOISE to build a secure transport protocol with its own AKE.

Data Knowledge Inference: A primer
Data Knowledge Inference: A primer
Data in its current state is insufficient to meet the needs of users and intelligent applications. It needs to be elevated to digital knowledge by supplementing it with machine-actionable metadata. This is necessary to align on FAIR principles, reduce data wrangling, support the establishment of Open Data APIs, and unleash computer intelligence.

RFC 8805: A Format for Self-Published IP Geolocation Feeds
RFC 8805: A Format for Self-Published IP Geolocation Feeds
This document records a format whereby a network operator can publish a mapping of IP address prefixes to simplified geolocation information, colloquially termed a "geolocation feed". Interested parties can poll and parse these feeds to update or merge with other geolocation data sources and procedures. This format intentionally only allows specifying coarse-level location. Some technical organizations operating networks that move from one conference location to the next have already experimentally published small geolocation feeds. This document describes a currently deployed format. At least one consumer (Google) has incorporated these feeds into a geolocation data pipeline, and a significant number of ISPs are using it to inform them where their prefixes should be geolocated.
