APIs power innovation, yet they’re out of control in most organizations. Success comes down to the right approach to development.
APIs are more important than ever to businesses' operations and growth, yet nearly all companies report API-related security incidents.
Meanwhile, engineering leaders are under pressure to accelerate cycle times and cut infrastructure costs. The path to API success has many obstacles, but the right tool can help.
OpenAPI standardized Specs are created in seconds so you can start coding ASAP without spending a sprint on building your design. Dynamic, sharable mocking in minutes with code you don’t have to manually write or maintain. Validate and go.
Maximize coding time in the inner dev loop. Blackbird can act as your own infrastructure team, enabling you to run and deploy code in a hosted production-like test environment without the friction of requests and setups.
Minimize excessive staging pushes and errors in production. Blackbird integrates directly with your IDE to allow quick, painless debugging with breakpoints in a hosted cluster, or connect seamlessly to your remote target environment (powered by Telepresence).
Fewer remote dev environments are needed, enabling you to save on cloud and maintenance costs.
Enable local access to remote cluster traffic without time-consuming configuration and setups.
Code and ship faster, freeing 50%+ of dev time from manual tasks to launch features and apps faster due to fewer problems found late in the development cycle.
The power of Telepresence is now available in Blackbird API Development Platform, enabling a game-changing development experience that brings remote environments to developers’ fingertips for fast, frictionless testing with the stability, security, and support enterprises need. The integration of telepresence further improves release velocity and quality while enhancing developer experience.
With convenient access to Telepresence functionality from the Blackbird CLI, developers can instantly establish a seamless connection between their local machine and shared remote Kubernetes environment for advanced debugging, improving code quality, and reducing infrastructure demands.
Each feature is designed to improve your ability to design and develop without disruption, allowing you to focus on building innovative APIs. Use Blackbird to improve cycle times, reduce rework, power up predictability, and enhance developer experience—ultimately delivering higher quality APIs in a fraction of the time at a fraction of the price.
