Other API gateways
There are many other API gateway providers available in the market. As we mentioned earlier, all gateways perform the same kinds of functions. Enterprise gateway service providers such as Amazon API Gateway plays nice with EC2 and Lambdas. Apigee is another well-known API gateway technology that is a part of Google Cloud. The problem with cloud providers is that they can cause vendor lock (cannot easily migrate to another platform). Because of that reason, open-source alternatives are always good for startup companies.
