API Gateway single node deployment consists of the following components:
Note:
Cluster coordinator is skipped as it is not required for single node deployment.
Single node deployment is possible on virtual machines or containers.
*To deploy API Gateway on a virtual machine, you have to install API Gateway manually using Software AG installer.
*To deploy API Gateway in a container, you have to download docker images from the Container Registry or build your own images. For more details, see Docker Configuration.
However, it is easy to run an instance in a container in comparison to a virtual machine.
