Database gateway

Unified operation of backend heterogeneous databases through the database gateway can minimize the impact of a fragmented database.

In addition to high performance, fusing, rate limit, blacklisting, and whitelisting, among other capabilities, the database gateway should also have capabilities such as unified access, transparent data access, SQL dialect conversion, and routing decisions. Furthermore, the quintessence of database proxy sustainability lies in an open ecosystem and flexible extensibility.

In this section, we will follow our pattern by introducing the mechanism, to then dive deeper into the components. However, this time, first, we should start with a little background. Considering the significant transformations that databases have been undergoing recently, we need to gain an understanding of what a database gateway is. The next section allows you to do just that.
