(Podcast) KrakenD, API management

Описание: Stop wrestling with clunky API management and unleash the beast! 🐙 In this episode, we dive into *KrakenD**, the stateless, high-performance API Gateway that is redefining how we handle microservices. Built for **unrivalled speed* and true linear scalability, KrakenD can handle a staggering *80,000+ requests per second* on commodity hardware, making it the fastest gateway on the market.

We explore why developers are obsessed with its **simplicity**. Imagine managing your entire gateway with just a single binary and a configuration file in a **GitOps way**—no cumbersome dependencies or hidden infrastructure costs. Whether you are scaling globally or running intense workloads, KrakenD’s performance-first architecture ensures your system stays robust and lightning-fast.

*In this episode, we cover:*
🚀 *API Aggregation:* How to compose multiple data sources into a single, sleek response.
🛡️ *Security & Traffic Control:* Mastering JWT, OAuth2, rate limiting, and bot detection.
🔄 *Data Magic:* Automatically transforming SOAP, JSON, or XML to fit your needs.
🔗 *Connectivity:* Linking REST, gRPC, GraphQL, and message queues like RabbitMQ or SNS.

KrakenD isn't just a tool; it is a "renaissance of innovation" in the API space, now proudly part of the **Linux Foundation**. It allows teams to stop re-implementing the same layers and focus solely on their business logic. As users say, "it just works".

Ready to transform your API journey? You can get started in just *5 minutes* using Docker!
