Relixy Overview

Introduction

Relixy is an API gateway service that sits in front of your REST or GraphQL services. It provides a unified layer for:

  • Authentication & authorization — integrate with RelyAuth for JWT, API key, webhook, and other auth modes.
  • Security — apply OpenAPI security schemes (API key, HTTP Basic, Bearer, OAuth2 Client Credentials) to upstream requests.
  • Request/response transformation — rewrite paths, headers, and bodies using Go templates and JMESPath expressions.
  • Load balancing — weighted round-robin across multiple upstream servers with automatic health checking.
  • Observability — built-in OpenTelemetry tracing, metrics, and structured logging.
