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?

Ask HN: Who is hiring? (April 2022)
Kong (https://konghq.com) | Gateway Senior Engineer | REMOTE Europe | Full-time
The Kong Gateway is an API Management solution, which serves as a foundation for many other solutions by the company. The business model is open-core: an Open Source solution exists (https://github.com/kong/kong), and there's an Enterprise version with more features and dedicated support.
The tech stack is a modified Openresty with of Lua code on top. The ideal candidate would be someone who is already familiar with Kong. Alternatively, if you are familiar with Openresty or other API management solution, we also would love to talk with you.
I am personally interested in finding people to join me in the European Gateway Team. The role involves adding features, fixing bugs, and collaborating with other teams. Here's that position:

How I Stopped Coding Repetitive Service Components with Kong
The Kong Gateway product allows the complexity of my service-tier APIs to be reduced to a collection of end points (or URIs) focused on meeting a collection of business needs and functionality. Often duplicated components (like authentication, logging, and security) are handled by the gateway and can be removed from the service-tier design. In addition to the common components shown in the original illustration, Kong Gateway offers additional functionality:
-
Keystone as a standalone Identity Service
However, if your goal is to secure services I would steer towards an API Gateway like Kong.
-
Building DigitalOcean's API Gateway
Kong is built on OpenResty which is NGINX with a Lua JIT.
