  • Swagger integration
  • Rate limiting
  • API key management
  • Lambda Integration
  • Testing and rapid development
Cons
  • Client certificates are troublesome when trying to attach them to API GW stages.
  • Debugging across several services can be difficult when API GW is integrated with Route 53 and another service like Lambda or EC2/ELB.
  • Creating internal/private APIs, particularly with custom domains, can be unintuitive.

AWS API Gateway is a solid solution to orchestrate your web services.
