======⚡⚡⚡======
What is the difference between an Reverse Proxy, a Load Balancer and an API Gateway? All of them seem to be doing similar things within the networking ecosystem. But there are subtle differences that every Software Engineer and Architect should be aware of.

Please more of these basics! You are the only channel I could find that actually puts the pieces together while giving me clear, understandable information on both a detailed AND abstract level.

So glad I stumbled upon your videos. You deserve so many more views/subs. Keep going!!

[@SoftwareDeveloperDiaries]

Thanks a lot, mate!

[@keshavakumar9828]

Been learning from your advance node.js series
Thanks you
I would definitely love if you would plan to release some form of course

So it's correct to say that when we have system under not much pressure (like 500 requests/hour) and we don't have complicated microarchitecture with a lot of different APIs reverse proxy + load balancer is enough? Otherwise we can use API Gateway to take benefit from e.g service discovery?
Anyway great, practical source of knowledge! Thank you!

[@SoftwareDeveloperDiaries]

Your assumption is correct! :) Thank you!

Can we have live example of the last architecture yo mentioned. It was an awesome video. 🥰

[@codingbreak8032]

What Visualization you use to draw your solutions? a educational video as always.

@SoftwareDeveloperDiaries I didn't really understand what the service at th-cam.com/video/UX11tVIkYUg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=7GdZyOEnTY9CSjeD&t=479 is supposed to do here. It seems unnecessary to me. What is its job?
PS: still liked the video :)
