Cost-effective serverless routing with room for extended timeout settings

We are using API Gateway to route the traffic to our Lambdas. Every API pass is linked to some of the Lambdas. When traffic hits CloudFront, it redirects it to API Gateway, which then redirects it to the respective Lambda server. We have different kinds of services invoked through these Lambdas…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The product is really good when it comes to API lifecycle management, and it is not just something that includes the balancing part or the security aspect but also the routing and the fallback mechanism."

"API Gateway offers a multitude of configuration parameters that enable versatile request filtering and protection against potential attacks."

"Its security feature is the most valuable because it is mainly a security solution. It has easy authentication and authorization, and its integration is also useful."

"Integrating API Gateway with other AWS services was easy. It worked out of the box, so it worked perfectly."

"In terms of most valuable features, it would say that it is really easy to start working with it."

"It's flexible. It was valuable."

"t is easy for integrations if it is deployed in AWS Services."

"In terms of scalability, I haven't encountered any issues with API Gateway. We've significantly increased our traffic from hitting it once or twice a minute to now hitting it ten to fifteen times within a minute. In an hour, we're receiving hundreds of hits. So, it's performing excellently."

More Amazon API Gateway pros

"The security, the authentication, and the publishing qualities are great."

"The initial setup isn't overly difficult."

"The most valuable features for us are security and centralization."

"It is very secure, easy to manage, and easy to configure. It is a web-based API. Moreover, we get direct support from Oracle guys."

Cons

"From a use cases perspective, you need to have an internal and external gateway. AWS can only handle external traffic so has to be used together with another solution."

"When using APIs, the manual bit for intermediate confirmation with VTL can be a challenge."

"The tool's UI requires time to understand."

"I believe better governance and monitoring features would be beneficial."

"Since the first invocation of AWS Lambda takes more than 30 seconds because of Lambda's cold start, Amazon API Gateway blocks that resource, thereby aborting the invocation."

"The solution could improve signature validation."

"There are features lacking in API Gateway, such as the timeout settings, which currently are set at 29 seconds."

"It's hard to configure. There's a lot of options but it's very hard, it's very confusing."

More Amazon API Gateway cons

"We'd like it if they could reduce the cost without sacrificing on features."

"Oracle should actively seek feedback and tailor the approach to client needs. It shouldn't always be about pushing additional products."

"From an administration and developer point of view, the user interface and user experience are not great."

"Before gaining experience with the product, I found that it was not simple to use and things took longer to do than I had anticipated."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We use all open-source technology."

"The pricing model for API Gateway is advantageous due to its serverless nature, as it depends on traffic volume."

"There are no licensing fees."

"AWS charges for data ingress and egress, which could be further reduced. This would be helpful for customers dealing with large amounts of data coming in or going out from their systems."

"It's cost-effective, even as our workload and the number of APIs we manage have increased."

"This is a pay-per-use service, where you only pay for what you use."

"It is somewhat costly, particularly when it introduces server-related features, which are often scheduled on our end."

"I am satisfied with the price."

More Amazon API Gateway pricing and cost advice

"Oracle is not a cheap solution and it is not affordable for all of our clients in Portugal."

Overview

Amazon API Gateway is a fully managed service that makes it easy for developers to create, publish, maintain, monitor, and secure APIs at any scale. With a few clicks in the AWS Management Console, you can create an API that acts as a "front door" for applications to access data, business logic, or functionality from your back-end services, such as workloads running on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2), code running on AWS Lambda, or any Web application.

Oracle API Management enable you to streamline business and IT objectives by managing the lifecycle of your APIs, outsource application enhancement by empowering developers through API adoption, and add a mobile front to your applications and capture new revenue opportunities with seamless API enablement.
