- Remember reverse proxies were originally intended to perform common tasks so your backend services didn’t have to: ssl termination, compression, filtering, security, whatever. That’s why the word reverse is in the name. It’s not just nginx to handle https as an entry point. It’s reverse, to offload these responsibilities from your apps.
- And API gateways are a more recent “handle all” solution to the network entry layer. More features, more complex. They do everything that an old school nginx container would, and much more. Load balancing, caching, monitoring, rate limiting, auth, etc.
- I use AWS API gateway, but remember the popular Kong (build on top of nginx).
- And remember: in an orchestration layer, you can get all this functionality from the Ingress/Service components.
