Snow Owl: Reverse Proxy & API Gateway for easy network management

Hi all, I'm David and we're building Snow Owl, a reverse proxy & API Gateway. At previous companies, we realized network complexity grew exponentially with increasing traffic, and devs wanted a simple solution to manage their http routing, especially for APIs and microservices. Frequent use cases include http request observability for rapid debugging, release testing (i.e. live traffic mirroring to blue/green deployments), and easy routing for CCPA/GDPR compliance. We'll be posting here as we build, but our design principles thus far have been proritizing easy custom routing via a rules engine, request level monitoring for rapid downtime debugging, and a SaaS-based environment for minimal setup and maintenance. Looking forward to participating!

Your focus on easy custom routing via a rules engine and request-level monitoring for quick debugging is spot on. And the live traffic mirroring for blue/green deployments? Genius move for release testing! The mention of CCPA/GDPR compliance caught my eye too - it's becoming more critical every day, and having easy routing options for compliance is a must. I checked out your link at http://pyproxy.com/?utm-source=c... - really liked the simplicity in the design and the features you highlighted. I've been dealing with proxy servers for IP resources lately, and it's always a bit of a puzzle. Your project seems like it could make things way smoother.
