Hi,
I have recently started using the latest Kong (services/routes).
With the older version, I used to like Kong Dashboard it suited most of my requirements.
But it’s not good with the latest version.
Any advise on alternative secure admin UIs or dashboards?
Thanks,
Arun
Take a look Konga https://github.com/pantsel/konga
Konga is great and simple to use. Most of the things like services, routes, consumer, plugins etc you can create with it. However, remember its not managed by Kong team 
Thank you guys!
Konga is quite good.
Had trouble installing it as an npm. But Docker version works great.
Looks like the Konga is now an archived repository, meaning isn’t supported by the authors. Is there a better UI for the Kong? Is the official one would be supported on docker-compose?
@Mzee Kong provides the following info on Kong Manager, their UI for Kong Gateway.
Generally, Kong Konnect provides the next generation of UI based management for Kong.
Thanks @rick that’s awesome. So is it possible to secure this UI too (OSS version)? I’m just getting into the space and wondering if I could use Kong directly in place of my existing Nginx (replace Nginx altogether with Kong. Hence this question.
@Mzee I believe that authorization and user management for Kong Manager is an Enterprise feature. However, I do believe you could secure Kong Manager by securing the port it exposes on Kong Gateway itself. I’m sorry, I don’t have explicit instructions for you on how to accomplish this, but the process would be the same as explained here for securing the Admin API with the gateway as the reverse proxy.
Thank you @rick. I get what you mean.
Can figure it out myself no issues.
