Common Interface Communicating with Multiple Back-End Services via Gateway Application

摘要

Systems and methods are disclosed for providing a common interface for communicating with multiple back-end services via a gateway application. In an example embodiment, a gateway application receives a first web service request and a second web service request. The first and second web service requests are generated by interactions with a graphical interface provided by the gateway application. The graphical interface can access a first service and a second service using different authentication protocols. The gateway application can respond to the first and second web service requests by executing a first function provided by the first service and a second function provided by the second service. Executing the first and second functions includes transmitting respective first and second service requests to the first and second services that are respective signed using a first authentication protocol for the first service and a second authentication protocol for the second service.

主权项

1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a gateway application, a first command and a second command generated by interactions with a graphical interface provided by the gateway application to a client, wherein the graphical interface is configured for accessing a first service and a second service using different authentication protocols; responsive to the first command, executing a first function provided by the first service by transmitting a first service request to the first service, the first service request signed using a first authentication protocol for the first service; and responsive to the second command, executing a second function provided by the second service by transmitting a second service request to the second service, the second service request signed using a second authentication protocol for the second service.
