KrakenD is the next-generation API Gateway built for high-performance, large-scale environments. Its stateless, database-free architecture enables true linear scalability with minimal infrastructure and no external dependencies. You can deploy KrakenD anywhere, scale without coordination, and operate efficiently using GitOps workflows and declarative configurations.
It supports a wide range of protocols and patterns—REST, gRPC, GraphQL, WebSockets, SOAP, Backend For Frontend (BFF), and more—without middleware bloat. Teams use KrakenD to aggregate responses, transform data, enforce security, and simplify complex API topologies into a single, maintainable layer. No custom services, no unnecessary logic on the frontend.
KrakenD avoids per-request pricing and opaque licensing. Instead, it offers predictable flat-rate plans that scale with your architecture, not your traffic. Whether you're modernizing from legacy systems or consolidating fragmented APIs, KrakenD gives you performance, flexibility, and full control over your API infrastructure.
