Nice to see more open-source solutions in this area. I've used the popular Django Rest Framework [1] to implement and manage APIs. Would there be a compelling reason to use Kong for the management aspect?

- nijiko 11y agoYou no longer have to code certain features into your API and can let Kong handle it for you :) Saving you time and money! Some features: http://getkong.org/plugins/
- codeinchaos 11y agoyou would use both. Django REST Framework (or any other framework) to build your business logic and API services. Kong is useful to scale and manage acceess to the API for API consumers (as oppose to end users) as well as a plugin system that abstracts HTTP tooling away from your API application, so you can scale them independently.
