Hi All

Recently we are trying to introduce an API gateway to our Springboot ecosystem microservices. We have 2 gateway in our mind: Spring cloud gateway & Kong. While most of the services are provided by both of them, however I wanted to know if KONG OSS does provide the TLS support. In enterprise KONG, I see TLS , but in KONG OSS, I could not find.  
Appreciate your help if some one can answer this query.

Hi Ajay,

I am not sure what TLS support you were referring to?

You can create certificate and SNI objects in OSS version which can be used for TLS termination.

If you want to secure Kong pxory itself with TLS, you can do that by change the setting on kong.conf (or environment variable if you are using docker) Here is the [doc](https://docs.konghq.com/gateway-oss/2.5.x/configuration/#ssl_cert)
