Building applications using the microservices pattern and deploying them on Kubernetes has become the standard for running cloud-native applications.
This architecture breaks a single application into multiple microservices, leading to new challenges for organizations at the system's edge where end users interact with internal services. These issues can include scaling the management of numerous services and ensuring API gateways support various microservice architectures and protocols.
Plus, the ever-increasing number of services and diverse architectures demand robust edge management overall, particularly for APIs and API gateways.
