The article discusses the emergence of 'agentic traffic' – outbound API calls made by autonomous AI agents – and the need for a new infrastructure layer, an 'AI Gateway', to govern and secure this traffic. It outlines the components of an AI Gateway and the importance of security, compliance, and observability in managing agentic AI.
Encore is an open-source backend framework and cloud platform for building distributed systems. It automates infrastructure, offers end-to-end type-safety, and provides built-in observability.
- Automated Infrastructure:
Local & Cloud (AWS/GCP) provisioning
Infrastructure semantics within application code
No separate config tools needed
- Type-Safe Microservices:
Define & call APIs like normal functions
Full type-safety & IDE auto-complete
Automatic protocol communication boilerplate
- Faster Development:
Hot reload & automatic local infrastructure setup
Simplified, speedier development process
Observability:
API explorer, distributed tracing, architecture diagrams
Service catalog with automatic API documentation
- Cloud Platform:
Seamless workflow with CI/CD, testing, & infrastructure provisioning
Preview environments for every PR
- Security & Scalability:
Battle-tested AWS/GCP services
Best practices for security & scalability
Metrics & logging for critical aspects
