Production-Ready API Consumption Gateway
The elegant management layer to all the outbound traffic in your organization. Scale your infrastructure and implement flexible architectural solutions to be controlled all from one place.
Lunar.dev's out-of-the-box Flows
Visibility First: The Key to Managing API Consumption
Lunar.dev allows you to monitor and visualize API calls to third-party services in real-time, perform comprehensive metric extraction and measure performance on outgoing traffic.
Optimize API Performance with Client side Rate Limits
This feature will enable you to enforce rate limits according to your own business logic, reducing dependency on your API Provider, making consumption more efficient by preventing unexpected throttling.
Combine and Prioritize Queues for Optimal Quota Management
This feature is designed to provide fine-grained control over quota usage to ensure efficiency and alignment with organizational needs. The Quota Management Flow combines two powerful tools: Prioritized Queue and the Client-Side Limiting Flow. Together, they help you control API requests by setting quotas and managing traffic queues based on priority.
Fail-Safe Mechanism for Data Protection
Our fail-safe mechanism guarantees data protection. If a gateway doesn't respond, the request is automatically routed directly to the API provider. This eliminates the risk of data loss and keeps your integrations running smoothly.
Redundancy
We employ a production-grade, failover mechanism. This means you have a backup gateway ready to take over seamlessly if the primary gateway encounters any issues. This eliminates downtime and ensures your integrations continue to function uninterrupted.
Gateway Clusters
Our gateway clusters share state information, ensuring continuity of service. API calls are intelligently load-balanced across the cluster, maximizing performance and scalability. This ensures your integrations can handle even sudden spikes in traffic without compromising uptime or performance.
Capabilities & common use cases
Deploy on your terms
Self-host the Lunar.dev gateway within your VPC for maximum security and control over sensitive data.
Speed that thrills
Experience minimal latency with our gateway adding only 4ms to API calls, ensuring smooth performance.
Built to handle the unexpected
A single Lunar.dev gateway can withstand up to 90,000 concurrent calls, so your integrations can handle traffic spikes with ease.
