Mastering API Proxies for Rate Limiting and Authentication: Protect Your Endpoints, Control Traffic, and Deliver a Rock-Solid Developer Experience APIs are the engines of modern software-but without smart traffic control and bulletproof security, even the best-built APIs crumble under pressure. How do you protect your endpoints from abuse, manage unpredictable traffic spikes, and still deliver a smooth developer experience? This book provides the answers. Mastering API Proxies for Rate Limiting and Authentication is a hands-on, developer-focused guide that shows you exactly how to enforce limits, secure access, and configure industry-standard gateways like NGINX, Envoy, Kong, AWS API Gateway, and more. Instead of abstract theory, you'll find proven strategies, runnable configurations, and practical playbooks trusted by teams building APIs at scale. Inside, you'll learn how to: Configure API proxies to enforce rate limits, quotas, and burst handling. Implement authentication mechanisms including API keys, JWTs, OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, PKCE, and mTLS. Scale rate limiting across distributed systems with Redis, sharding, and consistency models. Harden high-risk endpoints with layered defenses, bot detection, and OWASP-aligned policies. Monitor traffic with Prometheus and Grafana, set alerts for abuse, and build forensic-ready audit logs. Deliver a developer-friendly experience with transparent headers, clear error messaging, and SDK integrations. You'll also find reference templates, quick-start configurations, and real-world case studies-everything you need to move from "good enough" controls to enterprise-grade resilience. Whether you're building your first API or managing traffic for millions of users, these practices ensure your systems stay reliable, fair, and secure. APIs that thrive in production are the ones that anticipate both scale and abuse. This book equips you to design those APIs-platforms that earn the trust of developers while frustrating would-be attackers. If you're serious about building APIs that last, it's time to master the edge where traffic meets trust. Get your copy today and start building APIs that stand strong under load, safeguard your business, and delight every developer who uses them.
