Serverless Gateways

Serverless gateways are lightweight API gateways. Their Control Plane is hosted by Konnect and Data Plane nodes are automatically provisioned. Serverless gateways are ideal for developers who want to test or experiment in a pre-production environment.

Serverless gateways offer the following benefits:

  • Konnect manages provisioning and placement.
  • Can be deployed in under 30 seconds.
  • Access to Kong Gateway plugins.
