[yiwen101]

Project Name: API Gateway
Author: GitHub id: yiwen101, email: [email protected]
Github: https://github.com/yiwen101/CardWizards
Description: A working API Gateway that support runtime behavior control and come with a functional control web GUI. Applied listener pattern to maintain the idl to client map in run time. Still a work in progress, plan to add support for plugins, error handling etc

• Project Name: orbital_HeBao

• Author: Wang Hejin, Tan Yiming. Our emails are [email protected] and [email protected].

• Repo: https://github.com/wanghejin/orbital_HeBao

• Documentation: https://lively-cereal-3a1.notion.site/API-Gateway-based-on-CloudWeGo-Projects-e59b321209f043a0a625a8c98364c838?pvs=4

• Description:
  The scope of our project is to develop a fully functioning API gateway in Golang under the two frameworks: CloudWeGo's Kitex (an RPC framework) and Hertz (an HTTP framework). In this project, we focused on implementing four core features for our API gateway:

  1. service registration and discovery;
  2. communication protocol translation from HTTP to Thrift binary protocol;
  3. load balancing;
  4. dynamic updating of the mapping between interface definition language (IDL) files and backend microservices.

  After completing the demo product, we also conducted unit testing, integration testing, and performance testing on it.

Project Name: Svb_2.0

Author Yip Sin Hang, Niu wen jia. Our emails are [email protected] and [email protected].

Repo: https://github.com/simbayippy/OrbitalxTikTok

Documentation: here

Description: A High performance API Gateway that is able to dynamically update any service updates in IDL file during run time, supporting the 4 different types of generic clients of Kitex. Additional attempts made for the protojson_codec was made - close but still a work in progress

The full scope of our project can be found in our documentation process.

[jieqiboh]

Project Name: Godzilla Gateway (Inspired from the Kong API Gateway)

Authors: Boh Jie Qi, Winson Zheng, our emails are [email protected] and [email protected] respectively.

Repo: https://github.com/jieqiboh/Godzilla-Gateway

Documentation: This page provides links to our entire submission, including the system design document, relevant setup videos, and github repositories

Description:
A tested, highly performant, full-fledged API Gateway that implements all the basic requirements listed above:

• Accepts HTTP requests with json payloads and routes them to the respective services
• Employs the Kitex Generic Call mechanism to make json generic calls to microservices
• Utilises an etcd cluster as part of microservice registration and service discovery, as well as load-balancing mechanisms

Our API Gateway also provides the following features:

• Fully functioning IDL management system with an easy-to-use UI, enabling users to register, update and delete microservices for their API Gateway
• Code Generator that is able to generate gateway code based on microservices registered on the fly
• Elaborate gateway architecture comprising multiple gateway instances and an NGINX reverse proxy that allows for smooth updating of the gateway while it is running.

We also made our own custom benchmarking tool using Apache Bench that is able to measure key metrics like TP99 and QPS for our gateway, and made a cool logo :)

Project Name: API Gateway

Authors: Gabriel Chua, Loh Jian Rong. Our emails are [email protected] and [email protected] respectively.

Repo: https://github.com/jianrong7/orbital-23

Documentation: This page provides links to our entire submission, including the system design document, cloud deployment documentation, as well as testing.

Description:

A working API Gateway that is able to support server-side updates to the IDL, and service registration using Consul. It supports the JSON Generic Call function of the Kitex framework.

Project Name: CloudWeGo-API-Gateway

Authors:

• RashawnXue([email protected]),
• Jxd12([email protected])
• liukedian([email protected])

Repo: https://github.com/RashawnXue/CloudWeGo-API-Gateway

Documentation: You can find the documents of the project in README.md and this page

Description:

• The project implemented an API Gateway with two CloudWeGo' s frameworks: Hertz and Kitex.
• The client can send HTTP requests to the Gateway, then it will generic and forward the requests to the corresponding RPC servers.
• It supports IDL management, which allows to hot update IDL.

Repo: https://github.com/lar0129/hertz-APIgateway

Documentation:

• Chinese version: README
• English version: To be continued

Description:

• In this project, the API gateway serves as the entry point for the system, receives all incoming HTTP requests, parses the URLs in the requests, forwards them to the relevant back-end RPC servers in JSON format, retrieves the responses, and returns them to the clients.
• It supports IDL management, load balancing mechanism, service registry and discovery mechanism
