Flexibility and being able to easily add extra functionality is the underlying philosophy of Kong (https://github.com/Mashape/kong https://github.com/Mashape/kong), of which I am one of the core contributors. We are accepting pull-requests from the community for new Plugins (http://getkong.org/plugins http://getkong.org/plugins), and I can see Kong running on top of the AWS Gateway -> Lambda integration to provide functionality that is not necessarily bound to the AWS realm.
