I'm happy to share the release of Kairos Gateway v0.2.10 - a high-performance, multi-protocol API gateway built with Rust and Actix-Web.

What is Kairos Gateway?

Kairos is a production-ready API gateway that routes and load-balances traffic across multiple protocols with enterprise-grade features. Think of it as a lightweight, fast alternative to Kong or NGINX Plus, written entirely in Rust.

Key Features

  • Multi-Protocol Support: HTTP, WebSocket (ws:// & wss://), FTP, and DNS in a single gateway

  • High Performance: Built on Actix-Web, handles approximately 50K req/s with sub-millisecond p50 latency

  • Smart Load Balancing: Round-robin, least connections, random, and IP hash strategies

  • Security First: JWT authentication, rate limiting, request validation

  • Health Checks: Automatic backend health monitoring with circuit breakers

  • Retry Logic: Configurable retry with exponential backoff

  • Hot Reload: Update configurations without downtime

  • Web UI: Modern admin interface for gateway management

  • Metrics: Built-in Prometheus-compatible metrics
