OpenAPI Summit: No AI without APIs

Wednesday February 12, 2025 1:30pm - 1:55pm PST

Jeremy Snyder, Firetail, CEO

Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are two of the most important developments in tech of the last 10 years. While AI has grabbed the majority of headlines lately, APIs are the unsung heroes, the “connective tissue” that ensures seamless integration across our digital lives. But how will the more recent emergence of AI affect API security, and how do APIs affect the security of AI?
In this talk, we’ll explore these two hot topics that make our online worlds work. AI can be helpful to API security by allowing security teams to automate certain processes or make testing more efficient, but it can also be used to help malicious actors automate their attacks.

OpenAPI Summit: API Resiliency Testing

Wednesday February 12, 2025 3:00pm - 3:25pm PST

DevExec World Stage

Hari Krishnan, Specmatic, Co-founder, CTO

Are your APIs leaving you worried about data loss, data corruption, security vulnerabilities, or poor user experiences? If so, this talk is exactly what you need to address these issues. Discover how you can leverage your API specifications—like OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, and GraphQL SDLs—to test and enhance the resiliency of your APIs with a completely #NOCODE approach.

In this talk, you’ll gain insights into the importance of API resilience and how to build APIs that can gracefully handle flaky dependencies in real-world scenarios. We’ll explore the role of contract testing in ensuring resilience and demonstrate how to transform API specifications into executable contracts that can be continuously validated. You’ll see how to set up resilience tests, including those for latency, errors, and unexpected disconnections. The session features live demos on configuring tools to simulate these conditions, interpret the results, and iteratively enhance your API designs.
