Kong is a scalable, open source API Layer *(also known as an API Gateway, or
API Middleware)*. Kong was originally built at [Mashape][mashape-url] to
secure, manage and extend over [15,000 APIs &
Microservices](http://stackshare.io/mashape/how-mashape-manages-over-15000-apis-and-microservices)
secure, manage and extend over [15,000 Microservices](http://stackshare.io/mashape/how-mashape-manages-over-15000-apis-and-microservices)
for its API Marketplace, which generates billions of requests per month.

Backed by the battle-tested **NGINX** with a focus on high performance, Kong
was made available as an open-source platform in 2015. Under active
development, Kong is now used in production at hundreds of organizations from
startups, to large enterprises and government departments including The New York Times, Expedia, Healthcare.gov, The Guardian, Condè Nast and The University of Auckland.
