🦎 A multi-protocol edge & service proxy. Seamlessly interface web apps, IoT clients, & microservices to Apache Kafka® via declaratively defined, stateless APIs.

This project is a high-performance, distributed API gateway designed to manage, secure, and observe traffic for microservices, serverless functions, and artificial intelligence model providers. It functions as a dynamic service proxy and cloud-native ingress controller, centralizing policy enforcement and traffic routing through a unified configuration interface that synchronizes state across multiple nodes in real time. The platform distinguishes itself through a highly extensible architecture that utilizes a high-performance scripting engine to execute modular logic directly within the requ
