Audi Cockpit Project: A microservices web dashboard built using NGINX Plus as an API gateway on AWS

Timo Stark, Webdeveloper and Web Solution Architect, Audi

This is a true microservices journey. Almost a year ago we started with nothing more than a vision. Build a web application hosted on AWS and driven by APIs. Make it secure, lightweight, and fast. It needed to be stable and flexible. And have fun while doing it!

We will start our Journey at the very beginning. From a concept over the first AWS Infrastructure setup in dev to the production ecosystem with NGINX Plus as in important component at the end.

Specifically, this talk will discuss the concept behind the API gateway and the traffic routing to Microservices running with Kubernetes in AWS.
