Development environment is the environment, where the developers develop APIs. It is typically individual developer's workstation. And hence it is single-node deployment.

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.

For more information about how to set up an API Gateway instance, see Install API Gateway using Software AG Installer.
