Abstract
In various embodiments, a gateway application generates an outgoing Hypertext Transmission Protocol (HTTP) request based on an incoming HTTP request. In operation, the gateway application receives the incoming HTTP request and identifies an upstream service based on at least one of an HTTP method and a header included in the incoming HTTP request. Subsequently, the gateway application generates an outgoing HTTP request based on the upstream service and the incoming HTTP request. Finally, the gateway application issues the outgoing HTTP request. The outgoing HTTP request causes the upstream service to perform an action requested in the incoming HTTP request. Advantageously, the gateway application enables underlying upstream services to perform actions specified via incoming HTTP requests without directly exposing the upstream services to users.
