InfoQ, Friday, October 2nd, 2026
Ian Cooper explains how to govern asynchronous APIs in event-driven architectures using AsyncAPI, CloudEvents and schema registries.
In this InfoQ presentation from QCon London, Ian Cooper, a coding architect formerly at Just Eat Takeaway and Reuters, tackles how to manage the many APIs generated by event-driven architectures and outlines the 'ABCs' of messaging: Address, Binding and Contract.
Drawing on real-world practice at Just Eat Takeaway, Cooper covers discovery, governance and provisioning using AsyncAPI, CloudEvents and schema registries.
He also shows how automated CI/CD infrastructure pipelines can provision messaging resources at scale.
