Last updated 8 months ago

(often referred to as GCP API Gateway) is a fully managed service provided by Google Cloud Platform (GCP) that enables developers to create, secure, and manage APIs for their applications. GCP API Gateway acts as a central entry point for your APIs, handling the processing and routing of API requests to backend services running in Google Cloud or other environments. It is designed to provide scalability, reliability, and security for your APIs, ensuring they perform well under various loads and conditions.

GCP API Gateway supports RESTful APIs and integrates seamlessly with other Google Cloud services, such as Cloud Functions, Cloud Run, App Engine, and GKE (Google Kubernetes Engine). This allows you to build and deploy modern, serverless applications with ease. The service also provides features like request validation, rate limiting, and API key management to help you control access to your APIs and maintain consistent performance.

Security is a key focus of GCP API Gateway, offering robust features such as OAuth 2.0, JWT authentication, and IAM (Identity and Access Management) integration. These security features ensure that your APIs are protected from unauthorized access and that you can manage user permissions effectively. Additionally, GCP API Gateway offers detailed monitoring and logging through Google Cloud’s operations suite, giving you deep insights into API usage and performance.

As part of its Pynt allows seamless with GCP API gateway.

Integrating Pynt with GCP API Gateway enhances the discovery, security, and management of your APIs within the Google Cloud ecosystem. Pynt automatically discovers and catalogs your APIs as they are managed through GCP API Gateway, providing real-time security assessments and insights. This integration helps you identify and address vulnerabilities early, maintain compliance with security standards, and ensure that your APIs are protected as they scale. With Pynt and GCP API Gateway working together, you can confidently manage and secure your API environment, leveraging the full power of Google Cloud.
