Why this matters
One edge. Clear responsibilities.
A gateway becomes valuable when it standardizes cross-cutting concerns while leaving domain behavior with the products that own it.
- 01Identity and policy: Verify issuers, audiences, scopes, and coarse access before traffic reaches a capability.
- 02Compatibility: Own stable routes, versions, deprecation evidence, and safe migration at the customer boundary.
- 03Platform telemetry: Capture request volume, latency, errors, tenant, product, and attribution consistently.
- 04Deliberate exceptions: Keep service-specific business rules and workload internals out of the gateway.
