AWS API网关是一个可扩展的云服务，用于构建、部署和管理RESTful API和WebSocket应用程序。AWS API网关支持REST API和HTTP API两种类型的API。但许多人不知道这两种API的区别以及何时使用它们。

REST API是在Web上有广泛应用的一种API类型。它基于HTTP协议和REST原则，具有灵活性和可扩展性，支持多种协议（如JSON和XML）。它使用HTTP方法（如GET、POST、PUT和DELETE）和URL路由来处理客户端请求。以下是使用Python和Boto3 SDK创建AWS API Gateway REST API的示例代码：

import boto3
import json

client = boto3.client('apigateway')

api_name = 'my-api'
api_description = 'My API description'
rest_api = client.create_rest_api(name=api_name, description=api_description)

resources = [
    ('/hello', 'GET', 'HelloWorldFunction'),
    ('/world', 'GET', 'WorldFunction')
]

for path, method, function_name in resources:
    resource = client.create_resource(restApiId=rest_api['id'], pathPart=path[1:])
    response = client.put_method(
        restApiId=rest_api['id'],
        resourceId=resource['id'],
        httpMethod=method,
        authorizationType='NONE'
    )
    uri = 'arn:aws:apigateway:{region}:lambda:path/2015-03-31/functions/arn:aws:lambda:{region}:{account_id}:function:{name}/invocations'.format(
        region=client.meta.region_name,
        account_id=client.meta.aws_account_id,
        name=function_name,
    )
    client.put_integration(
        restApiId=rest_api['id'],
        resourceId=resource['id'],
        httpMethod=method,
        type='AWS',
        integrationHttpMethod='POST',
        uri=uri,
    )
    client.create_deployment(
        restApiId=rest_api['id'],
        stageName='prod',
    )
  
print("API Gateway REST API created with ID:",
