### "Review of Amazon API Gateway" — 5.0/5

> **Darian** | *5 November 2021* | Insurance | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We liked how easy it was to connect to cloud functions. Previously, our APIs were written and hosted on an EC2 server. It was extremely easy to create a function on Lambda that was accessible to the outside through API Gateway. Also, the authorizations and authentication using Apikeys / custom authorizers allowed us to have multiple levels of users and security, which some of our older endpoints did not have.
> 
> **Cons**: We have a recurring problem with the timeout limit on the API. There are some APIs we want to develop but are unable to due to the timeout limit (30s)
Some features I don't think are helpful. For example, the API documentation section I think is lacking and using a different Documentation system is preferred. Also, we wanted to view the usage per api key but to do so required a custom logging solution with Amazon Firehose. I would imagine such functionality should be available through the dashboard or Cloudwatch.
> 
> API Gateway helped us solve a problem we were encroaching, which was too many endpoints with not enough organization. APIGW let us take our endpoints and isolate them. The routing lets us write specific endpoints which then become simple to deploy, upkeep and monitor. Additionally, the security features available keep our API secure from misuse.
