APIs Without Borders: Exploring the world of Locationless API Management

on YouTube ↗34m

" summary

Locationless API management uses Scupper routers and tokens to create a bidirectional Layer‑7 mesh that makes remote endpoints appear local to a single gateway. A live setup links three environments (AWS OpenShift, Azure OpenShift, RHEL VM), exposes remote backends as virtual services, and lets a Red Hat 3scale gateway discover and call them over a single TLS port (443). Calls authenticate with API keys, and Scupper provides automatic load‑balancing and failover; the demo builds and works end‑to‑end.
