مخرجات التعلم
- Describe gateway responsibilities: routing, TLS termination, authentication, rate limiting, request shaping.
- Configure Spring Cloud Gateway (or an equivalent) in front of Shop's services.
- Decide what belongs in the gateway vs in services, and avoid business logic at the edge.
- Explain the backend-for-frontend pattern.

Lab
MID-035-LAB1 · Shop gateway
Outcomes: 1–4 · Time: ~2.5 h Build a Spring Cloud Gateway (or an equivalent) as the single public entry point for catalog, orders, inventory, and payments. Validate JWTs at the edge, route by path, add a correlation id, and apply rate limits (MID-034). Remove published ports from the services so they are reachable only through the gateway on the Compose network, and keep token validation in services.
Acceptance: services are not reachable directly from outside; requests without a valid token get 401 at the gateway; a request with a forged identity header does not gain access.
Exercises (assessment: responsibility-placement exercise)
| ID | Outcome | Task |
|---|---|---|
| MID-035-EX01 | 1 | List five responsibilities of an API gateway with one sentence each. |
| MID-035-EX02 | 2 | Write the route configuration for catalog and orders with path predicates and prefix stripping. |
| MID-035-EX03 | 2 | Configure JWT validation so /api/products/** is public and everything else needs a token. |
| MID-035-EX04 | 3 | Responsibility placement: for 10 concerns (TLS, CORS, discount calculation, order ownership, rate limit, JWT signature check, response aggregation, request logging, retry of payment, feature flags per customer), decide gateway, service, or BFF. |
| MID-035-EX05 | 3 | A team wants to add stock-based pricing rules to the gateway. Write a short rejection with the better place. |
| MID-035-EX06 | 4 | Describe when Shop needs a BFF and sketch a mobile BFF response for the home screen. |
أظهر الحلول
- EX01 Routing, TLS termination, authentication, rate limiting, request shaping (headers, rewrites, correlation id); also CORS and logging.
- EX02 Two routes with
Path=/api/products/**tohttp://catalog:8080andPath=/api/orders/**tohttp://orders:8080, filterStripPrefix=1. - EX03 Resource-server config with
permitAll()for/api/products/**andauthenticated()otherwise; configure issuer or JWK set URI. - EX04 Gateway: TLS, CORS, rate limit, JWT signature check, request logging. Service: discount calculation, order ownership, payment retry (with idempotency). BFF: response aggregation. Feature flags per customer: service (or a flag service), not the gateway.
- EX05 Pricing is business logic; it would couple the gateway to inventory data and force gateway releases for every rule. Put it in
catalogor a pricing component. - EX06 A BFF is justified when mobile needs aggregated, smaller payloads (featured products, cart count, order status) in one call, different from web; it calls
catalogandordersand returns one tailored JSON.
Quiz Q09 and Q10 also cover outcome 4.

الجزء العملي
Six exercises MID-035-EX01 to EX06 including the responsibility-placement exercise, plus MID-035-LAB1. Pass: at least five exercises, correct placement of at least 8 of 10 concerns, and a lab where services are unreachable except through the gateway.
أخطاء شائعة
Gateway as a new monolith; services trusting any request with no token.
