About api-gateway

A skill for API gateway design and configuration, covering routing, authentication, rate limiting, load balancing, and circuit breaker patterns. It outlines stacks including Kong, Traefik, AWS API Gateway, Nginx, and Envoy, with configuration examples.

Key features

  1. 01Path, header, and canary routing
  2. 02JWT, OAuth2, and API key authentication
  3. 03Multiple rate-limiting algorithms
  4. 04Load balancing and circuit breakers
  5. 05Kong and Traefik configuration examples

Use cases

  1. 01Configure API request routing
  2. 02Add authentication to an API
  3. 03Set per-user or per-IP rate limits
  4. 04Plan load balancing and circuit breaking

Install

From the project README

API Gateway — Kong, Traefik, Patterns

API Gateway moderne pour routing, auth, rate limiting, observabilité.

Responsabilités

FonctionOutils
Routing (path, header, canary)Kong, Traefik, Nginx
Auth (JWT, OAuth2, API keys)Kong plugins, Traefik middleware
Rate Limiting (per-user/IP)Redis-backed counters
Load BalancingHAProxy, Traefik
Circuit BreakerResilience4j, Istio

Stacks

Kong — Enterprise, plugins riches, K8s-native
Traefik — Cloud-native, auto-discovery
AWS API Gateway — Managed, serverless
Nginx — Performance max, self-hosted
Envoy — Service mesh (Istio), gRPC

Kong Config

services:
  - name: payment-api
    url: http://payment:8080
    routes: [{ paths: ["/api/payments"] }]
    plugins: [rate-limiting, jwt, prometheus]

Traefik Config

http:
  routers:
    payment:
      rule: "PathPrefix(`/api/payments`)"
      middlewares: [rate-limit, auth]
  middlewares:
    rate-limit:
      rateLimit: { average: 100, burst: 50 }

Rate Limiting Algorithms

Fixed Window — Simple counter, bursty
Sliding Window — Rolling counter, lissé
Token Bucket — Flexible, burst toléré
Leaky Bucket — Output constant, strict
