"What do you mean? With vulcand you can implement your own middleware similar to kong." Nginx is not an API management layer, right? It doesn't have the necessary features, but it's extensible so someone could build them. Mashape did, and they released the result as Kong. Vulcand is in the same position as nginx. It could be a good choice for building an API management layer on, but it doesn't provide one out of the box.
