API Gateways

API gateways sit between clients and backend services, handling authentication, rate limiting, request routing, and protocol translation. They are a central component of microservice and API-first architectures. Providers differ in protocol support (REST, GraphQL, gRPC), plugin extensibility, observability features, and whether they offer both cloud-hosted and self-managed deployment options.
