In 2017, at a big-data ad tech company, we used to use nginx as an API gateway. Our experience with the tool was difficult enough that I'd strongly caution you to execute a deep-dive POC before committing to it. Our main problem at the time was the combination of scant documentation and poor technical support: we encountered many little issues with config file syntax that took way too long to solve: it took multiple days to figure out things that on the surface one might expect to resolve within an hour or two. And not everything was possible without turning to third party modules or writing our own plug-ins. Much can change in four years, however, so maybe they've ironed out some of those kinks. But talking about the tool of those days, I'd say plan on hiring an nginx expert to support it. On the other hand, it's flipping fast, practically invisible. |
