Abstract

Systems and methods for selectively exposing Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) dynamically and in a scalable manner include, when a new API is exposed in a microservice, making it accessible via a gateway if it is indicated to be exposed. The present disclosure focused on exposing a range of services behind the API gateway in a scalable, easy to use manner. The present disclosure includes an API gateway that supports a new microservice easily and efficiently as long as it provides metadata. The API gateway dynamically decides which APIs will be exposed via the gateway with filtering per service. Also, the API gateway routes any request made by a user to the gateway back to the intended microservice in a transparent fashion, as well as performing any additional transformations of the request before sending it back to the microservice.
