Patent 11954539 was granted and assigned to Kong (company) on April, 2024 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
Disclosed embodiments are directed at systems, methods, and architecture for configuring event hooks in a microservice architecture-based system. The control plane links a plurality of APIs for a microservice architecture application. Each API includes a data plane proxy that serves traffic for the API from the control plane. The control plane receives an event hook including an event, a source, and a handler. The control plane configures a component of the microservice-architecture-based system to run the handler when the event occurs at the source. When the event occurred at the source, the component runs the handler.
