SERVICES WITHIN REVERSE PROXY SERVERS

摘要

Embodiments of the invention provide techniques for processing messages transmitted between computer networks. Messages, such as requests from client devices for web services and other web content may be transmitted between multiple computer networks. Intermediary devices or applications such as proxy servers may receive, process, and transmit the messages between the communication endpoints. In some embodiments, a reverse proxy server may be configured to dynamically generate Representational State Transfer (REST) services and REST resources within the reverse proxy server. The REST services and REST resources within the reverse proxy server may handle incoming requests from client devices and invoke backend web services, thereby allowing design abstraction and/or enforcement of various security policies on the reverse proxy server.
