Amazon API Gateway

Amazon API Gateway is a service that helps developers create, publish, and manage application programming interfaces (APIs) for their software applications. Think of it as a doorway that allows different software programs to talk to each other securely and efficiently. It handles requests from users or other systems, directs them to the appropriate backend services, and sends responses back. This makes it easier for businesses to connect their applications, manage traffic, and ensure that their services are reliable and scalable, all while maintaining security and performance.
