API gateway in terms of implementation

[Jignesh Patel]

Davi,

How in general API gateway is being designed. Is it just a routing service and how Quarkus can help us in implementing it?

https://github.com/Commonjava/gateway Sorry, I should let the book author Davi respond to the question.

[Jignesh Patel]

Thank you Jeremy for sharing. This is something worth exploring.

[Jignesh Patel]

I have downloaded the code.  Can this work with JDK17?

Also how this API gateway can be used for doing oauth or auth.

[Jeremy Whiting]

I don't know if it is compatible. I suggest you try building the project with jdk17 to find out.

I think you should try using the code.quarkus.io site plus the Quarkus quickstart examples to discover oauth or auth integration.

and you should download the free book Quarkus Cookbook

My team is starting to create Microservices with quarkus I am thinking to use the gateway API you provided to begin with. The request from our monolith GUI will be sent to the gateway you provided and then will hit our customer microservice.

[Jignesh Patel]

Is there a sample flow which can describe of being called from GUI to API Gateway to different micro services?
I also believe this will not create any type of licensing issues?
Also in terms of using AWS gateway: https://quarkus.io/guides/amazon-lambda-http which is better solution, in terms of managing lesser servers.
