Kong Konnect Reviews
"Open source API Gateway that simplifies interaction between micro-services "
Pros: Kong is a scalable and open source API Layer. It runs in front of any Restful Web services. Kong is designed to make secure, reliable and modular communicate between client and micro-services. Kong works as reverse proxy of micro-services that provides Authentication, Security, traffic control, Analytics & Monitoring and Transformations of request and responses. Kong has a great technical support team that replies very quickly.
Cons: There is nothing i dislike about Kong but I think user interface to define API gateway should be there.
