Apache APISIX vs KONG

Apache apisix benchmark script: https://github.com/iresty/apisix/blob/master/benchmark/run.sh

Kong beanchmark script: 

curl -i -X POST \
  --url http://localhost:8001/services/ \
  --data 'name=example-service' \
  --data 'host=127.0.0.1'

curl -i -X POST \
  --url http://localhost:8001/services/example-service/routes \
  --data 'paths[]=/hello'

curl -i -X POST http://localhost:8001/routes/efd9d857-39bf-4154-85ec-edb7c1f53856/plugins \
  --data "name=rate-limiting" \

@cboitel have you used any of these after your benchmarks? what is your recommendation for someone looking to adopt any of these?
I am interested in a simple nginx use case + auth for low latency and throughput up to 3000qps in the long run.

@Dhruv-Garg79 Hi, may I ask which API gateway was ultimately chosen?

you can choose the one you like, both of them are open source, you can know everything if you want to research them.

For me: Apache APISIX is better performance and rich ecosystem, it belongs to the Apache Software Foundation, more open and safe
