AWS direct API Gateway → ALB integration And it changes how you should architect microservices. VPC Link v2 now connects straight to your private ALB. No NLB layer needed anymore. Why this matters: → Removes unnecessary network hops → Simplifies your VPC architecture → Faster API response times → Easier to scale microservices The setup: API Gateway → VPC Link v2 → ALB → ECS/EKS That's it. Clean. Simple. Compare that to the traditional multi-layer setup most teams still use. Who should care: • Building REST APIs with ECS/EKS • Running microservices in VPCs • Hybrid cloud architectures • Anyone simplifying their networking layer Real question though: How many of you are still using an NLB in front of your ALB?
