When we want to publish APIs, for instance using an API Management solution, we regularly think about versioning.

This practice meets project management needs but brings a lot of complexity.
Imagine, you work on a platform which exposes APIs to many customers.

You must bring new features while controlling the existing ones.

Which strategy to adopt? What are the potential technical tools and practices we could implement easily?

During this presentation, you will unlock the secrets of API versioning I have put in place and helped me during my last projects.

Through a real-life use case based on a microservices architecture, we will define the best strategy to put in place, the other potential ones and their constraints.

At the end of this presentation, we will have the big picture on the diverse ways of APIs versioning.
