When I watch a video like this, so clear, it's really difficult to imagine why someone would dislike it. Thanks for posting this Koushik!

[@vishal24000]

I'm amazed that being such a busy man, Koushik still has the time to put out such amazing videos for us! I've literally grown as a software engineer watching his videos.

[@smmehrab]

Man, you always come up with great explanations with great examples that are really easy to catch. Thanks, man!

[@letsrock7354]

I have been there on other channels like telusko and all but this guy Koushik feels amazing....I dont know but I like your style Sir...the way you design your lesson plan is amazing ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Regards, A budding Developer

[@kpfingh6269]

After watching multiple complicated and unclear videos, finally found a clear explanation on API Gateway... Thanks a lot for this crystal clear explanation!!

[@vyshnavramesh9305]

1. Gateway = Edge microservice = Api composition 2. What: a microservice to map apis (used by external clients) to microservices. 3. Why: loose coupling between clients and microservices. Eases lifves of frontend and backend devs. Backend dev can seperate out an MS into multiple MS without troubling frontend dev. 4. Added facilities: Monitoring, Authentication 5. eg: own microservice (if just api-microservice mapping), Zuul, Aws gateway, etc (if added facilities) 6. Cons: a) Single point of failure (solution: multiple same gateways, load balancer and elastic ips), b) Gateways are dependent on client type (solution: multiple different gaetways)

[@pim8268]

Simple but detailed explanation, with an easy-to-understand real life example. Really, well done. Thanks!

[@paulclarke4099]

Thank so much for the great video, you are blessed with the wonderful ability of being able to explain complex things very simply and that is a very rare talent in deed. All your videos are fantastic.

[@research8131]

why is there a dislike button for this? Are you kidding me, man!??? Thanks for yet another great content! I just think your teaching style is brilliant. Very much appreciated.

[@kambalavijay6800]

I really loved it, especially when the abstraction is brought into the picture and made it very easy to understand forever.

[@chethan93]

that small skit with stick men was funny and the long pause in the end was hilarious!😁

[@jenimpatel3074]

Thank you so much for making this video(and for making other videos too). You explain things really well. Please continue doing so! :)

[@sagarshekhar6296]

When things are related to the real world scenarios, concepts get cleared at the very much extent

[@prafullakh]

By not watching your videos (in time), i took "been biting the dust all along" concept to a whole new level. But then, you don't ask visitors to hit that subscribe button and press the bell icon. So a part of me is still happy that its not my fault completely. Anyway, excellent video. Thanks.

[@NomeshDeSilva]

Please do a full microservices recap with deployment (CI/CD) and scaling tutorial. Thank you

Yeah, a level 4 to the microservices course.

Excellent Explanation. I remember back in 2012 as Java novice I learnt Spring and Servlets from your channel, which even now is still relevant , thanks a ton. Please start a Udemy course explaining all these and much more. Excellent Content and very easy to understand. And you voice is calming and encouraging. Thank You.

You are amazing person man way you make complex architecture as simple and understable. Thank you

[@aireddy]

This is super simple explanation, Awesome!

[@palaniappanrm6277]

Awesome video. Few questions: 1. Is API gateway essentially a reverse proxy? 2. Zuul can load balance of the internal services but it needs service registry to work right? Isn't it better to use Nginx which can do lot more stuffs and we can do static routing based on the path?

[@saqibabdul9262]

[@farukm7627]

Very useful and informative. Thanks

[@vishalsundararajan1228]

Good animated demonstration. Keep it up :). BTW Zuul is not a recommended solution for API Gateway because spring cloud gateway is the preferred one, we can dynamically configure routes pro-grammatically and its has better integration with Spring security oauth2. I faced a huge problem where the API's routes cannot be onboarded using a database configuration with zuul2 whereas with spring cloud gateway we can . and moreover spring team does not concentrate on zuul anymore. The main use of API gateway is the single point for authentication and authorization for all the microservices behind it and of course routing of request based on channels such a mobile, web etc.

Hey Koushik, short and nice intro on API Gateway. Can you take out some time and discuss about server side code obfuscation may be on a spring boot project, and a completely different library jpos which is used for ISO8583 transactions but due to lack of proper documentation not everyone is aware of it however it is widely used in almost all the financial project that deals with banks, atms etc.
