Note
This API Gateway is based on the Open Source Edition of the Kong API Gateway. Therefore, features available in the free (closed-source) and enterprise (also closed-source) edition are not available with this image.
The API Gateway is the central part of the WISdoM Plaform and manages the access
to the microservices implemented for the platform.
Furhtermore, it is extended by a plugin using the
go-pdk to validate JWTs which are used in a
standard deployment to authenticate and secure requests.
The API Gateway is autommatically configured using the gateway-service-watcher which acts as a watchdog to check the deployed containers on the host for their association to the WISdoM platform.
