Description

API Gateway offers comprehensive services for managing the entire lifecycle of APIs, which encompasses publishing, managing, maintaining, and monetizing them. It facilitates quick and easy integration of microservices, ensures separation between front-end and back-end processes, and allows for economical and low-risk system integration. Through API Gateway, you can effectively share functions and data with external partners and third-party developers. It also provides valuable resources such as API documentation, SDKs, and tools for managing different API versions, which help in minimizing daily maintenance expenses. The platform is designed to handle distributed deployment and comes with auto-scaling features to efficiently manage a high volume of requests while maintaining low latency. Notably, both the activation of API Gateway and its management services are offered at no cost, with charges applying only for the APIs that are actively utilized. Furthermore, API Gateway includes capabilities for permission management, traffic throttling, monitoring, and alerting, ensuring robust security and oversight. You can confidently allow API Gateway to access your intranet services without compromising security, making it a reliable choice for modern API management needs. The versatility and features of API Gateway make it an essential tool for businesses seeking to enhance their digital infrastructure.

Description

The Knox API Gateway functions as a reverse proxy, prioritizing flexibility in policy enforcement and backend service management for the requests it handles. It encompasses various aspects of policy enforcement, including authentication, federation, authorization, auditing, dispatch, host mapping, and content rewriting rules. A chain of providers, specified in the topology deployment descriptor associated with each Apache Hadoop cluster secured by Knox, facilitates this policy enforcement. Additionally, the cluster definition within the descriptor helps the Knox Gateway understand the structure of the cluster, enabling effective routing and translation from user-facing URLs to the internal workings of the cluster. Each secured Apache Hadoop cluster is equipped with its own REST APIs, consolidated under a unique application context path. Consequently, the Knox Gateway can safeguard numerous clusters while offering REST API consumers a unified endpoint for seamless access. This design enhances both security and usability by simplifying interactions with multiple backend services.
