Introduction

Welcome to the official documentation for Kinesis API, a powerful all-in-one framework that transforms how you create, manage, and scale APIs.

What is Kinesis API?

Kinesis API is a comprehensive solution for API development that combines:

• A custom-built, high-performance database system (Kinesis DB)
• A visual editor for creating API routes with the X Engine
• Integrated management tools that eliminate the need for multiple external services

Whether you're prototyping a simple API or building complex, interconnected systems, Kinesis API provides the tools to accelerate development without sacrificing quality or control.
