Policy Execution Order

Architecture

Persist a Response Cache Map in the Gateway Resource.

Each key-value pair in the Response Cache Map will be:

Code Block
{

...


  policy_instance_id: Google Guava Cache,

...


  ...

...


}


Each Google Guava Cache will have has the key-value pairs:

Code Block
{

...


  [ Hash Hex of params specified by policy ]: Cached HTTP Response

...


  ...

...


}


Each Cached HTTP Response will hold contains the following information:

  • Original HTTP Response Object for preserving the flow of handling HTTP responses in the Gateway Resource.

    • byte[] of the response content to preserve the stream that cannot be rewound.

Expired caches cannot be accessed and new entries

...

overwrite any existing ones.

  • policy version to determine if the policy has been updated since the last save. An update to the policy will direct the flow to acquire a new HTTP response and overwrite the existing

...

The persisted HTTP response will leverage the existing Gateway Resource flows so that response policies and compressions can be applied the cached HTTP response it as if it were a regular HTTP response that is acquired from a normal HTTP request (without a caching policy).

Provide a maintenance routine to clear out invalidated caches every 12 hours.

  • one.

Limitations

We do limit the response cache to have a response less than the MAX_CACHE_BYTES which is a feature flag default to a value of 90000000 bytes which is equivalent to 85.83 MB (edited)
