In this video we are going to see architecture of API Gateway.
Almost an API gateway is native list services for creating, publishing, maintaining monitoring and
securing rest HTTP and web socket APIs.
So you can see the image on the slide that shows API gateway architecture.
This diagram shows that when we create APIs in Amazon API Gateway, it provides our customers with an
integrated and consistent developer experience for building a service applications.
So API Gateway handles all the tasks involved in accepting and processing hundreds of thousands of concurrent
API calls.
These tasks include traffic management, authorization and access control monitoring and API version
management API Gateway acts as a front door for applications to access data, business logic or functionality
from our backend services.
For example, workloads running on Amazon, elastic compute cloth to or code running on the ADA, lambda
or any web application or real time communication applications.
So we will mainly use API gateway for exposing our Microservices API to the client applications and
the microservice architectures.
