• AWS API gateway as HTTP proxy with Lambda workaround

  03/14/16

  In addition to invoking Lambda functions and other AWS services such as S3, the API Gateway can also act as a proxy between the user and your http based service. For example if you already have a service based architecture you could integrate it with the gateway to maintain, monitor and secure a public API for your services. However, Amazon’s priorities seem to be on the former two integration methods, because when it comes to the details the HTTP proxy integration is quite painful at the moment. In this post I will highlight some of the pitfalls and provide workarounds.
