AI Analysis
●●SolidShip It
Dynamic .so plugin system in Go is a clever twist on standard gateway config.
Strengths
- •Native .so plugin loading allows runtime extension without recompiling core.
- •Built-in request fan-out and response aggregation reduces client-side complexity.
- •Lightweight YAML config avoids the heavy XML or UI overhead of Kong.
Weaknesses
- •Go plugin system has known limitations on macOS and Windows support.
- •Lacks the massive ecosystem of middleware available in Kong or Envoy.
