Abstract
An information handling system operating a serverless elastic-scale application programming interface (API) gateway management system may comprise a network interface device receiving gateway operation policies, in a first format, for execution of an API at a gateway, and a processor generating a gateway configuration file, in a second format, via one of a plurality of gateway type policy translators, instructing the gateway to provision the API to meet the gateway operation policies. The information handling system may also comprise a network interface device to transmit the gateway configuration file to the gateway and receive an indication that an API call was made at the gateway, and a service level agreement (SLA) monitor to determine a call rate at which API calls are made at the gateway exceeds a preset rate limit defined within the operation policies, and transmit an instruction to the gateway to reject the API call.
