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.

Description

Lura is a high-performance API Gateway framework that is extendable, simple, and stateless, suitable for both cloud-native and on-premises environments. When working with REST APIs, particularly within microservices architectures, consumers often need to interact with backend services that were not originally designed with the user interface in mind. While this approach is beneficial, it can introduce significant complexity and strain on the UI consumers due to the varying sizes and structures of microservices responses. Lura effectively serves as a bridge between clients and source servers, simplifying interactions by delivering only the essential information required by the UI. It aggregates data from multiple sources into singular endpoints, enabling users to group, wrap, transform, and condense responses as needed. Furthermore, the framework offers robust support for a wide range of middlewares and plugins, which can enhance its functionality, including the integration of Oauth authentication and additional security measures. With Lura, developers can streamline their API interactions, significantly reducing overhead for front-end applications.
