Given the number of API Gateways available on the market, I'm regularly asked which is better. Better is a very subjective term. However, there's no denying that if you're advocating for a product, you should know your product and its competitors. In this post, I'd like to share my understanding of Spring Cloud Gateway and how it compares to Apache APISIX.
I'm cautious when comparing products because most comparisons I read are heavily biased. That's a risk, especially when working on one of the products one is comparing. I'll also avoid "benchmarketing" - when you benchmark products in a context that favors your own; I'll focus on the so-called Developer Experience.
