Micro Gateways and API Connect

•

1 like•221 views

Micro gateways are APIs that can filter access, enforce authentication and plans, and gather metrics for APIs. Traditionally, gateways were large, complex systems but newer Node.js tools allow for smaller, lighter "micro" gateways that can provide the same functionality with less overhead. API Connect from IBM allows developers to easily create and manage micro gateways for APIs.

“a family of pre-built, pre-configured rack mountable network devices (XML appliances) that can
help accelerate XML andWeb Services deployments while extending SOA infrastructure. Originally
these devices were created by DataPowerTechnology Inc., which was acquired by IBM in October
2005.[1] “ ~Wikipedia

So, what is a Gateway then?
@joe_sepiIBM
• Filter/proxy access to your business logic and data endpoints and services
• Handle authentication
• Enforce any plans you may have, including rate limiting and authorization
• Gather metrics to provide analytics as well as logging
• Act as a security filter checking for malicious code or actions

That doesn’t sound “micro”!
