Today I was evaluating what I we should use for something like this, a unified Facade with an API.

We evaluated Traefik and Kong. Decision was for Kong, since we need more features like auth, logging, rate limit.

Strong choice! My dream is for AuthN to provide authentication and account functionality for folks who have not yet invested in an API gateway, and then seamlessly plug in when their architecture matures later. Extracting user accounts can be a difficult barrier for transitions like that.
