api

Kingbird API is Web Server Gateway Interface (WSGI) applications to receive and process API calls, including keystonemiddleware to do the authentication, parameter check and validation, convert API calls to job rpc message, and then send the job to Kingbird Engine through the queue. If the job will be processed by Kingbird Engine in synchronous way, the Kingbird API will wait for the response from the Kingbird Engine. Otherwise, the Kingbird API will send response to the API caller first, and then send the job to Kingbird Engine in asynchronous way.

Multiple Kingbird API could run in parallel, and also can work in multi-worker mode.

Multiple Kingbird API will be designed and run in stateless mode, persistent data will be accessed (read and write) from the Kingbird Database through the DAL module.
