Introduction

With the fast-changing landscape of digital transformation within AfriForum, the importance of seamless and secure interactions between disparate systems cannot be overstated. The AfriForum API Gateway has emerged as a pivotal architectural component within AfriForum's modern application ecosystem, offering a robust conduit through which services can communicate, data can be exchanged, and functionalities can be extended. This document store serves as a comprehensive guide to understanding, implementing, and leverage the AfriForum API Gateway.

This Gateway acts as the front-door for various requests from clients (users, systems, applications) seeking to access numerous backend services. It is responsible for request routing, API composition, and aggregation, thereby decoupling client interfaces from backend implementations. This abstraction not only simplifies client interactions but also enhances manageability, security, and scalability across the board.
