I have been using Kong since 2016 on various APIs and I have been impressed by the continuous increase of performance after every release. I wish upgrades were easier but I know they are working on it (the "migrations" between each major version), but overall it's a fast and pluggable layer for any API inside or outside the firewall, especially if you are running containers.

On this note for those of you who haven't noticed it yet, they have released an Alpine version of their Docker image, but it's still not the default one. I would actually recommend using it to further reduce the size of Kong containers: https://konghq.com/blog/kong-alpine-docker/
