What do you like best about the product?
The first thing of Kong API that ilI like the Most is it's popularity among the World. Can be used in both Hybrid and Multi cloud, it's well optimised for Microservices. It supports Load Balancing of API that's what the most I like of it. We can do clustering, checking health, monitoring few more things. It can even run in Kubernetes. It's Open Source the most Important thing.
What do you dislike about the product?
The part that I don't like of Kong API gateway is we need more Integration with Kubernetes. Need more Medium post on Kong API gateways. Some times issue with connection it's get refused sometimes
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The most Important thing that Kong API gateway solving for me is that it have a large community that you can use to grow. It's open source making itself a large community. Scaling plays a main role as we need to it when traffic is high or when the network is congested Kong is the solution for this use it, if we are facing issue with scalling.
