    API Gateway enables you to provide secure access to your backend services through a well-defined
    REST API that is consistent across all of your services, regardless of the service implementation.
    Clients consume your REST APIS to implement standalone apps for a mobile device or tablet, through
    apps running in a browser, or through any other type of app that can make a request to an HTTP
    endpoint.
