Tyk Gateway, a high performance open source API gateway that authenticates, rate limits and proxies your APIs from a single Go binary backed by Redis.
Tyk Gateway is a fast, cloud native, open source API gateway written in Go. It sits in front of your services and handles authentication, authorization, rate limiting, quotas, request and response transformation, versioning and analytics, all driven by declarative API definitions. This image ships the open source Gateway on its own, in file based mode with a local Redis datastore, so you get a complete standalone gateway with no external dependencies and no Dashboard or commercial components.
The cloudimg image is hardened and fully patched with the open source Tyk Gateway and its required Redis datastore preconfigured as native services. It is secure by default: the gateway control API secret is generated uniquely on first boot rather than shipped with a known value, the control API and Redis are bound to loopback, and nginx fronts only the data plane and the public health endpoint. Every instance is backed by a paired deploy guide and 24/7 cloudimg support.
