You'll reach for this when you need to set up centralized API management for microservices, whether you're working with Kong, Nginx, AWS API Gateway, or Traefik. It covers the essentials: routing and load balancing, JWT authentication, rate limiting, request transformation, and SSL termination. The configurations are practical starting points rather than production-ready templates, but they show you the structure for each platform. The best practices section is solid on the fundamentals like authenticating at the gateway level and never exposing backend details in errors. If you're building a microservice architecture and need to consolidate cross-cutting concerns in one place, this gives you the baseline patterns.
