Description

This study describes the process of introducing an API gateway with cross-cutting features into a reactive architecture. The aim of this implementation is to introduce these cross-cutting features into the architecture without changing the services of the reactive architecture. Ex- amples of cross-cutting features are: security, tracing, monitoring and request composition. The target design required the translation of an asynchronous protocol to a synchronous protocol. This was achieved by identifying conversations based on sequence diagrams of current communications in the architecture of Thales.
