Design and Performance Optimization of a Custom API Gateway

To overcome Spring Cloud Gateway’s memory leaks, slow O(N) routing and complex reactive code, the team built a custom, thread‑per‑core Netty gateway with in‑memory O(1) route lookup, DAG‑based filter chains and an asynchronous client, delivering four‑times higher throughput (≈45 k QPS), ~19 ms ART, no leaks, and far‑reduced latency.
