First, I need a website that is much more fleshed out than this to get me to buy. But this is a Show HN so that's OK.
How does it handle DNS and what does the UI look like compared to API Gateway? Some screenshots would be nice.
What are the features compared to API Gateway? Does it have authenticators and API keys?
Also, the #1 feature API Gateway is missing that I want is the ability to do rate limiting by IP address instead of API key or account.
As an aside, I'd like to share my setup:
I have two t2.micros in multiple Availability Zones, DNS load balanced and health checked (route53) and have a simple GoLang server that takes the HTTP request and maps it to Lambda Proxy format and calls the AWS Lambda API.
The two micros can handle all the traffic I could reasonable throw at it and cost me almost nothing.
So then you ask, well don't I have servers at that point (which defeats the purpose of "Serverless")? Well, yes, but they are almost 0 config servers (just need the Lambda info) and can be immutable.
t2.micro x 2 = $20 / month Route53 zone = $2 / month Route53 health check x 2 = $1 / month Route53 query pricing w/ latency based load balancing = $1 / million queries
Now, if there was an AMI that set all this up for me in the AWS Marketplace for cost + a few dollars a month I would consider it.
