The use case: how Kong deploys Speakeasy
Kong uses Speakeasy to generate and automatically update an official Terraform provider from its OpenAPI specs, replacing a community-maintained provider that enterprise customers could not adopt for compliance reasons.
In the customer’s words
Thanks to Speakeasy, the cost of offering a Terraform provider for Kong wasn't 'give me two engineers and 12 months', it was 'sign off on this purchase order and I will give you a provider'. The actual cost to the business time-wise and disruption-wise was minimal.Other AI tools used by Kong
