This document provides an overview of applying API management to microservices deployed in Kubernetes using the WSO2 API Operator. It discusses microservices architecture and service meshes. It then covers how the API Operator can be used to deploy an API gateway and apply API management functionality like security, throttling and monitoring to microservices. It provides examples of exposing microservices as APIs using both the "swagger first" and "publisher first" approaches. Finally, it outlines a demo of deploying sample microservices in an Istio service mesh and applying API management using the API Operator. Learning materials are also referenced to help understand configuring the required tools and components.
