Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Multi-layer Caching in API Gateway Tackles High Traffic Challenges
Through this intelligent caching mechanism, APISIX efficiently utilizes system resources when handling a large volume of requests, thereby improving overall system performance and stability. APISIX, with its advanced LRU cache, provides developers with a reliable and efficient API gateway solution, facilitating smooth communication with external services.

Apache APISIX plugin priority, a leaky abstraction?
The main issue is that priority is documented in the config-default.yaml file, while the phase is buried in the code. Worse, some plugins run across different phases. For example, let's check the proxy proxy-rewrite plugin and, more precisely, the functions defined there:

10 Reasons for Choosing API7
API7 takes Apache APISIX as its robust foundation, which is open-source and has an active community with over 600 contributors all over the world. The nature of open source allows users to examine the source code, which promotes transparency. This transparency helps users understand how APISIX works, verify its security, and identify and fix any potential vulnerabilities or bugs.

How is Apache APISIX Fast?
But the best part is that the libraries mentioned here and Apache APISIX are entirely open source, meaning you can look under the hood and modify things yourself.

Custom Plugin Development For APISIX With Lua And ChatGPT
4. Plugin definition: It is a really important part of plugin implementation that we define as a table with properties for the version, priority, name, and schema. The name and schema are the plugin's name and schema defined earlier. The version and priority are used by APISIX to manage the plugin. The version typically refers to the version that is currently in use like API versioning. If you publish and update your plugin logic, it is going to be 1.1 (You can set any version you wish). But you need to be very careful in choosing priority. The priority field defines in which order and phase your plugin should be executed. For example, the 'ip-restriction' plugin, with a priority of 3000, will be executed before the 'example-plugin', which has a priority of 0. This is due to the higher priority value of the 'ip-restriction' plugin. If you're developing your own plugin, make sure that you followed the order of plugins not to mess up the order of existing plugins. You can check the order of existing plugins in the config-default.yaml file and open the Apache APISIX Plugin Development Guide to determine.

NGINX Rewrite Behavior
This is my first foray into NGINX, and it seems my desired use-case is a bit different/left field. We're attempting to utilize NGINXaaS (Azure PaaS) to act as an API Gateway for some of our on-premise APIs. We were trailing KrakenD prior for this, but are moving toward NGINX as there's a desire to move everything PaaS (where appropriate). Our current KrakenD instance is configured to host a different set of URI than what the backend is configured for, IE:

How to choose the right API Gateway
Check what configuration language (JSON/Yaml) and style (Declarative/Imperative) chosen API Gateway support. It is not so crucial but sometimes you might ask: Does it have a user-friendly GUI and drag&drop easy config option? Some open-source projects like Tyk, Krakend.io, and Apache APISIX have built-in no-code possibly visual editing dashboards. You can even import all your APIs descriptions from a JSON.

Apache Apisix: Open-Source API Gateway and API Management Platform
I was trying to look up the license for that project and the repo linked from the footer of their website is https://github.com/krakendio/krakend-ce#readme (Apache 2), but because I just did a web search for krakend there is also https://github.com/luraproject/lura#readme which says it's from the Linux Foundation (also Apache 2)
Is KrakenD some kind of generic term, or does that project just have a complex history?
