Brief architecture overview

This workshop is related to the Cloud Native Starter project. In the workshop we use a customized version of the security application example. The example application simply shows articles protected with an Identity and Access Manegement. In the following picture you see the frontend with the articles and the valid user alice is logged on.

The following diagram shows the architecture of the example application. There is a web-app frontend application that serves the JavaScript/Vue.js code to the browser. The web-app code running in the browser invokes a REST API of the web-api microservice. The web-api microservice in turn invokes a REST API of the articles microservice. Keycloak is used for the Identity and Access Management of that microservices based application. To see the results in the web application, users need to be authenticated and they need to have the role user.

The image below shows the dependencies of the example:
