API Gateway

API Gateway is a software system for brokering requests from API consumers, such as web and mobile applications, and API providers, such as Infor enterprise or third-party services. As a broker sits between consumers and providers (technically it is a reverse proxy), it can provide many benefits to both consumers and providers.
