Mactores Achieves Amazon API Gateway Service Delivery Status

Jul 16, 2025 by Dan Marks

Mactores is excited to share that we've officially achieved the Amazon API Gateway Service Delivery Status from AWS!

This recognition means AWS has validated our experience and expertise in designing and delivering solutions that help businesses build secure, high-performing, and scalable systems using Amazon API Gateway. But this milestone isn't just about us; it's about the benefits it brings to our clients.

 

What Does This Status Mean?

Amazon API Gateway is a tool that helps businesses create and manage the “front doors” through which their apps and services communicate. It’s crucial for handling things like user logins, data sharing, and connecting different systems smoothly and securely.

Earning the Service Delivery Status shows that Mactores has consistently delivered projects that follow AWS's best practices for security, performance, and cost efficiency using Amazon API Gateway. It's a mark of trust and quality.

How This Benefits Our Clients

  • Handle Growth Smoothly: We design APIs that scale effortlessly to handle growing user traffic without slowing down.
  • Stay Secure: Our solutions use strong security controls, like encryption, rate limiting, and integration with tools such as AWS WAF, to keep your systems protected.
  • Work Faster: Features like caching and intelligent routing mean users experience faster load times and smoother interactions.
  • Save Money: We know how to design systems that avoid unnecessary costs, helping you make the most of your AWS investment.

A Real-World Example

To put this into perspective, here's how we helped a global online platform transform its user authentication system.

This company runs a vibrant digital world with millions of users and thousands of people logging in every hour. Their older systems struggled with high traffic and keeping personal data secure. They needed to modernize—but without disrupting their users' experience.

Here's how we helped:

  • Modernized Authentication: We implemented a new, scalable authentication system using Authentik, exposing key services like login and password resets through Amazon API Gateway.
  • Enhanced Security and Performance: Using API Gateway's features such as throttling, rate limiting, and caching, we reduced response times and protected the system from potential overloads or attacks.
  • Integrated Monitoring: We connected everything to Datadog for real-time monitoring, helping their teams detect and fix issues faster.
  • Cost Optimization: We used API Gateway caching and smart backend integrations to lower infrastructure costs while maintaining high performance.

 

The Impact?

  • 35% faster user logins.
  • 47% higher capacity for handling peak user loads.
  • 50% fewer support tickets related to login issues.
  • An estimated 27% cost savings compared to their old system.
All while keeping sensitive user data secure and meeting compliance requirements like GDPR.

Lessons Learned

Through projects like these, we've learned that:

  • Smart caching and throttling make a massive difference during peak times.
  • Real-time monitoring helps resolve issues faster and improves user experience.
  • Planning for versioning and staged rollouts reduces risks during updates.
  • Following security best practices prevents common vulnerabilities and ensures smoother audits.
