Overview
Apache APISIX is a high performance API gateway that handles dynamic routing, load balancing, authentication, rate limiting and observability through a rich plugin ecosystem. Routes and plugins are managed in real time through an admin API or the graphical dashboard.
Why the cloudimg image
APISIX is preinstalled with its etcd config store and the dashboard behind an authenticating nginx proxy, hardened and ready, with the config store on a dedicated resizable data disk. A fresh admin API key and dashboard password are generated on first boot and stored in a root only file, so there is no default login, and 24/7 cloudimg support is included.
Common uses
- Microservices API gateway
- Rate limited public APIs
- Centralised routing and auth
