AWS has announced that its API Gateway HTTP API is now Generally Available. This marks an important milestone in the development of the service, which offers a more efficient and cost-effective alternative to traditional REST APIs. The new version includes several key features, including stage and route-level throttling, mix-and-match support for REST and HTTP APIs under the same custom domain name, payload format version 2.0, integration with private resources such as ALBs, NLBs, and CloudMap, simplified Lambda response handling, and improved security capabilities through zero-trust networking and authentication methods like AWS IAM and Cognito User Pool. The Lumigo platform also supports HTTP APIs, allowing users to monitor and optimize their serverless environments more effectively. Overall, the new features aim to reduce the disparity between REST and HTTP APIs, making it easier for developers to choose the most suitable option for their use cases.
