SAA-C03 - Design Resilient Architectures - Section 2.2

Design scalable application integration using Amazon API Gateway, load balancers and container orchestration.

Describe Amazon API Gateway as a managed entry point for REST, HTTP, and WebSocket APIs that handles throttling, authentication, and request transformation without managing servers. Distinguish when to place an Application Load Balancer in front of containerised Amazon ECS tasks versus using API Gateway, based on protocol, routing complexity, and the need for native AWS service integrations.
