Hi,
In the context of Kong, PostgreSQL may be used as a backend database to store configuration data, user information, and other relevant details for the Kong API gateway. This could include information about APIs, routes, consumers, plugins, and other configuration settings. It doesn’t store the actual data being processed by the APIs. The actual data being handled by APIs may reside in other databases or external systems, depending on the architecture and requirements of the specific application.
- Can i use the same PostgreSQL DB to store actual data being processed by the APIs?
- Any specific use case or reason to use other databases or external systems?
- Any architecture diagram to refer to understand Kong API Gateway in more depth?
Please guide me. Thanks in advance
Best Regards,
Kaushal
