## Overview

Design and configure API gateways to handle routing, authentication, rate limiting, and request/response transformation for microservice architectures.

## When to Use

- Setting up reverse proxies for microservices
- Centralizing API authentication
- Implementing request/response transformation
- Managing traffic across backend services
- Rate limiting and quota enforcement
- API versioning and routing

## Quick Start

Minimal working example:

```yaml
# kong.yml - Kong Gateway configuration
_format_version: "2.1"
_transform: true

services:
  - name: user-service
    url: http://user-service:3000
    routes:
      - name: user-routes
        paths:
          - /api/users
          - /api/profile
    plugins:
      - name: rate-limiting
        config:
          minute: 100
          policy: local
      - name: jwt
        config:
          secret: your-secret-key
          key_claim_name: "sub"
      - name: cors
        config:
          origins:
            - "http://localhost:3000"
// ... (see reference guides for full implementation)
```

## Best Practices

### ✅ DO

- Centralize authentication at gateway level
- Implement rate limiting globally
- Add comprehensive logging
- Use health checks for backends
- Cache responses when appropriate
- Implement circuit breakers
- Monitor gateway metrics
- Use HTTPS in production

### ❌ DON'T

- Expose backend service details
- Skip request validation
- Forget to log API usage
- Use weak authentication
- Over-cache dynamic data
- Ignore backend timeouts
- Skip security headers
- Expose internal IPs
