I wish there was an alternative to Kong API gateway where I didn't need to write my plugins in Lua (the go and js sdks seem abandoned and are incomplete).

Have you tried KrakenD? https://www.krakend.io/ - plugins are written in Go

Have you seen https://github.com/zalando/skipper? You can implement custom filters in Golang.

Have you looked at Tyk? https://github.com/TykTechnologies/tyk/

I used kong on premise is there a use case for it when aws and the likes offer API gateway solutions?

[kryptn]

we're using the kong gateway controller on aws eks, it's pretty neat. I prefer to manage it via argocd/gitops over terraform.

Lua has some pretty neat sandbox-type features. I wonder if choosing it is related.

Assuming it is built on top of OpenResty https://github.com/openresty/openresty

What would you prefer to write plugins in?

[pachico]

Because I have custom needs

[dilyevsky]

I mean what language other than lua?
