Fwd: Demystifying AWS API Gateway: The Front Door to Your



Application 🏛️

We’ve learned about the different API Gateway types, which leads us to
two prominent use cases.

Exposing your Serverless Applications to the Internet

The typical web application is a client-server combination: a frontend, e.g.


a web page or a mobile app. A backend server to communicate with the
frontend.

On the serverless side, your backend is a construct of one or multiple


Lambda functions that include your business logic. Exposing those
functions to the internet is done via a REST or HTTP API Gateway that
allows you to actively enforce rate-limiting, request validation,
transformation, routing, authentication, and authorization without writing
much or any code at all.
