A significant majority of web traffic is now made up of API calls – how is your company evolving to accommodate this shift?
API gateways streamline these calls between microservices and clients in an efficient manner, while also handling other tasks like authentication, encryption, caching, and rate limiting.
In our newest ebook we break down how API gateways can benefit companies internally and externally, including how to make your API gateway easier, faster, and more cost effective. Read on for a synopsis of the points we cover in the ebook.
Benefits and business cases of API gateways
API gateways are critical for the future of cloud applications. They can:
- Increase efficiency through API caching
- Improve service availability through API failover and replication
- Enhance scalability through load balancing and throttling
- Increase data security through API encryption and authentication
- Improve thread protection with firewalls and intrusion detection
With these benefits, there are clear business cases for adopting API gateways, saving time and money and protecting important data from security threats.
