This is amazing! It would work very well with any API gateway like KONG [1], especially to test unexpected network conditions for our internal APIs.

Just curious, how Ceryx compares with Kong [1] ?

Hey fica, Kong is a similar project which was developed about the same time with Ceryx. They are both similar in some ways and use cases, but were built for different reasons and goals. I was in a presentation of Kong recently and I can say that I was impressed with the effort they've put on there from Mashape.

Kong [1] (nginx + lua) is planning to have this feature for free. This is the issue open for support for dynamic upstream [2].

Unfortunately kong still has a hard dependency on Cassandra.

Before the end of the year Kong will support Postgres.

That is fantastic news!

Would be cool to put Kong [1] on top of the API to handle JWT or CORS [2] out of the box.

I think that would a good separation of concerns, I didn't know Kong, but it seems that is more specialised tool supporting Oauth2, Rate limit, Ip filtering ..etc via plugins. I would like to see both tools running in Docker and working together. I started this public gist to explore this solution https://gist.github.com/alfonsodev/6a6c66b4074248ed9702 feel free to comment and collaborate there.

Kong is great but adds dependencies to the project (I don't really want to deploy bloody Cassandra for a small API).

And it would be great to have 3rd party logins working in Kong
