FRONTEND - MIDDLE-END - BACKEND

• We need an intermediate layer between the client side and the microservices.

• Using this middle end , when client sends request we will be able to make decsion that which microservice should actually respond to this request.

• We can do message validation, response transformation, rate limiting.

• We try to prepare an API Gateway to acts as this middle end.

• For creating proxy middleware I have used http-proxy-middlware package.

• For creating rate limiting I have used express Rate limit package.

• For logging i have used morgan package.
