The Hidden Risks of Third-Party APIs #3: Hidden Costs Are your third-party APIs quietly driving up your cloud spend? Redundant integrations, inefficient traffic patterns, and excessive polling can inflate costs without you noticing. Qpoint tracks API usage by application, team, or service to help platform teams optimize interactions, consolidate redundant services, and reduce unnecessary expenses. 🔍 Learn more: https://qpnt.io/4gITyYT #eBPF #API #SRE #PlatformEngineering

We released a major update to our UI this week with a number of important new capabilities: - Updated Overview / Dashboard - New Vendor, Endpoint, and Client Inventories - End-to-End API Token Visibility - Advanced Filtering Capabilities - and more!

The Hidden Risks of Third-Party API Dependencies #2: Reliability and Performance When a third-party API fails it often has a direct impact on your platform’s reliability. Outages, throttling due to rate-limits, and intermittent failures degrade user experience and can be hard to troubleshoot. Qpoint delivers real-time monitoring, error detection, and actionable insights to ensure issues are caught and resolved before they impact your users. 🔍 Learn more: https://qpnt.io/4iLMoVR #eBPF #API #SRE #PlatformEngineering

The Hidden Risks of Third-Party API Dependencies #1: The Observability Gap Your third-party API dependencies are likely far more extensive than you realize! Hidden connections to undocumented endpoints and unmonitored traffic can lead to blind spots that complicate operations and increase risk. With Qpoint, you can leverage eBPF to automatically discover and catalog all third-party integrations, gaining the real-time visibility needed to address these gaps before they impact your platform. 🔍 Learn more: https://qpnt.io/3Zz9NAM #eBPF #API #SRE #PlatformEngineering
