Anyone searching for an API Gateway framework
About Lura
An extendable, simple and stateless high-performance API Gateway framework designed for both cloud-native and on-prem setups. Consumers of REST API content (especially in microservices) often query backend services that weren’t coded for the UI implementation. This is of course a good practice, but the UI consumers need to do implementations that suffer a lot of complexity and burden with the sizes of their microservices responses. Lura is an API Gateway builder and proxy generator that sits between the client and all the source servers, adding a new layer that removes all the complexity to the clients, providing them only the information that the UI needs. Lura acts as an aggregator of many sources into single endpoints and allows you to group, wrap, transform and shrink responses. Additionally, it supports a myriad of middlewares and plugins that allow you to extend the functionality, such as adding Oauth authorization or security layers.

Gloo Edge
Gloo Edge is an Envoy-based API gateway and ingress controller to facilitate and secure application traffic at the edge. An API gateway receives requests from clients (e.g. external clients like web and mobile applications or applications and services located on-premises, in the cloud or mixed in hybrid environments) and manages ingress to the appropriate services within its domain. The API gateway sits in the data plane and manages “North/South” traffic by providing services including security, reliability, filtering, transformations, and routing. Working collectively, the API gateway can provide higher-level services such as high availability, load balancing, failover, zero-trust security, tracing, and metrics gathering. Gloo Edge is a Kubernetes-native, next-generation API Gateway built on Envoy Proxy to manage, secure, and observe traffic at the edge.
