Music Gateway

Overview

This is an HTTP gateway to some cool music metadata databases. In addition to routing, it offers some content enrichment. The solution is based on Spring Cloud framework and is packaged as a docker image.

Main Features / Design Decisions

• configurable routing to several backing services with minimal coding thanks to Spring Cloud Zuul proxy.
• Content enrichment filters (interceptors).
• Autogenerated correlation IDs for easier transaction tracing and troubleshooting.
• Microservice deployable as a docker container with an inbuilt health check end point for runtime monitoring and management.
• Insightful management endpoints thanks to Spring Boot Actuator framework:
  • http://localhost/actuator/info
  • http://localhost/actuator/health
  • http://localhost/actuator/metrics
  • http://localhost/actuator/routes
  • http://localhost/actuator/filters
• Helpful home page with sample requests
  • http://localhost
