Abstract
Techniques for an Application Programming Interface (API) gateway to workload placement and load balancing in a distributed system. The API gateway may route API requests, responses, and so forth, via a plurality of paths between the API gateway, API endpoint devices and API client devices. The API gateway may collect the path properties for the plurality of paths between itself, and the client devices and API endpoints. Additionally, or alternatively, the API gateway may collect process properties indicating the statistics of specific processes. Using this data, the API gateway may determine that a particular path, a particular process, etc., has experienced performance degradation. The API gateway may further determine, and perform, a remedial action to take to remedy the performance degradation of the path or processes.
