5. What is an API Gateway
 An API gateway is a software layer that sits
between client applications and backend services.
It acts as a mediator, accepting API requests from
client applications, and forwarding them to the
appropriate backend service for processing.
 The API gateway also handles any necessary
security, routing, load balancing, and caching of
requests.
 The API gateway provides a unified interface for
these services, making it easier for client
applications to consume them.
 API gateways can also provide additional
functionality such as rate limiting, request
validation, and response transformation. This can
help improve the performance, scalability, and
security of the overall system.
