About

The Knox API Gateway is designed as a reverse proxy with consideration for pluggability in the areas of policy enforcement, through providers and the backend services for which it proxies requests. Policy enforcement ranges from authentication/federation, authorization, audit, dispatch, hostmapping and content rewrite rules. Policy is enforced through a chain of providers that are defined within the topology deployment descriptor for each Apache Hadoop cluster gated by Knox. The cluster definition is also defined within the topology deployment descriptor and provides the Knox Gateway with the layout of the cluster for purposes of routing and translation between user facing URLs and cluster internals. Each Apache Hadoop cluster that is protected by Knox has its set of REST APIs represented by a single cluster specific application context path. This allows the Knox Gateway to both protect multiple clusters and present the REST API consumer with a single endpoint.

About

ContextForge MCP Gateway is an open source Model Context Protocol (MCP) gateway, registry, and proxy platform that provides a unified endpoint for AI clients to discover and access tools, resources, prompts, and REST or MCP services in complex AI ecosystems. It sits in front of multiple MCP servers and REST APIs to federate and unify discovery, authentication, rate-limiting, observability, and traffic routing across diverse backends, with support for transports such as HTTP, JSON-RPC, WebSocket, SSE, stdio, and streamable HTTP, and can virtualize legacy APIs as MCP-compliant tools. It includes an optional Admin UI for real-time configuration, monitoring, and log visibility, and is designed to scale from standalone deployments to multi-cluster Kubernetes environments with Redis-backed federation and caching for performance and resilience.
