Technology
Ktor is a development technology used to build, support, or power modern software applications and digital products.
Ktor is a Kotlin framework for building asynchronous servers and HTTP clients. It provides routing, middleware-style plugins, serialization, authentication, WebSockets, and flexible configuration for backend applications. Ktor is useful for REST APIs, microservices, internal services, and applications built by teams already using Kotlin. Its modular architecture allows developers to add only the server features required by a project.
For projects using Ktor, teams should consider the application's requirements, expected scale, integration points, deployment environment, testing approach, and long-term maintenance. Choosing the technology should also take into account the existing skills of the development team and the libraries or services already used by the product.
