API gateways are primarily used for HTTP traffic coming from clients external to your backend services eg. an iOS device (hence the term 'gateway' vs. 'mesh'). I don't think they support thrift or grpc (at least aws doesn't, not sure about other providers). https://aws.amazon.com/api-gateway/

Google cloud supports grpc on their api gateway: https://cloud.google.com/api-gateway/docs/grpc-overview
