Superb Presentation. What I like the most was the "style" in which you presented.... crystal crisp clear voice, no high or low pitch in your voice, going at constant steady speed, up to the point explaining each step properly, no shuffling from one screen to another (its very irritating) which makes to loose link. Looks like you have taken pains to plan your presentation well in advance keep up with the good work.
Very concise tutorial, thank you. I added a Middleware in my individual services to check for a specific header that I only set at the gateway level so that clients cant call my microservice endpoints directly, but only through the gateway. Is there a better way to handle this for local dev. (Not using NSG in Cloud Service etc)
Question: Can you please explain or extend this example with Kubernetes please? I found this helpful and I have implemented the same with Docker (docker desktop) but couldn't find much materials to extend in kubernetes.
Good explanation Nirjhar, about the concepts. If possible share the related links in creating Authorization token (JWT) project in Description. Thanks.
This is an awesome video! I have a question, though. Where or how the gateway find the authentication server? I didn't see you state the address (localhost:5030) anywhere
@Furqana Fathuzzaman, I used one of the auth servers I created in one of my previous videos for auth demo here: ruclips.net/video/vWkPdurauaA/видео.html
@@DotNetCoreCentral I mean, how does the gateway (or other service) find the auth service? IIRC some example in the past state the auth service url in jwt authority or issuer, but I didn't see it being configured here. Does it have some technique to automatically find it? In the auth demo video, the api and auth service is in the same project/url, so I don't think it was needed. But in this one, the service is on different address (different port). Sorry if I missed something, I'm still grasping around the concept of separated identity service for microservice.
@@FurqanaFathuzzaman In this example I am using JWT Authentication token, hence I am not calling back to the Identity server to find out what the user's identity. As for JWT Token, the user information is inside of the token in encoded format. Let me know if it makes sense. And as you can see in 05:20, I am passing the same secret key as in the authentication server, hence I am able to validate the token from here.
Super helpful video as always, I have a question about cache. Cache is going to return the same result from memory even though the data in the Microservices changed ?
@Manuel Guerrero, thanks for watching! To answer your question, yes, the cache will return data from the cache irrespective of changes in the microservice as long as the cache is not expired. And that is why it is important to cache items which make sense even if the data is a little stale based on business requirement. Most of the time, report type of data would make sense to cache, not something like product inventory.
@@DotNetCoreCentral If data is changed in microservices you have to fie the even and clear the cache in memory. memory service should be listen the event and clear the data.
@@naval207 I am not sure I understand what you are trying to conclude here. As I mentioned earlier, the only thing we should be caching is, and I quote "And that is why it is important to cache items which make sense even if the data is a little stale based on business requirement. Most of the time, report type of data would make sense to cache, not something like product inventory." Again Ocelot is not a caching solution, the caching feature it provides should only be used for some convenience not for full-fledged caching, for that we should use distributed cache like Redis.
hello sir, can we access two different microservices which are present in different solutions using ocelot,if yes plz tell me how, if not then plz tell me the alternative to do this
Thanks for the video ! Actually the keys are different in two videos ("This is my test key" vs. "Thisismytestprivatekey"), maybe that's why some people fail the test :D
Hello everybody. It seems to me that Ocelot has stopped developing since December 2020. Has anybody started looking for a substitute for Ocelot? What service can do request aggregation? Thank you in advance.
Hello Sir, Great videos and very clear! Do you have a simple Ocelot api gateway in docker compose? I'm having difficulty with the routings for a single GET service!
I always wait for your videos.,,great stuff..Really appreciate all your efforts..waiting for videos on Azure service bus, Azure Functuons,Azure MessageQueueing,Azure App Insights...etc
If you add it to the API Gateway, the individual microservices do not need to have authentication. But you will have to make sure the microservices are not accessible to the internet, meaning they are inside of a DMZ.
@Ravi Kishore, I have not done anything with active directory authentication before. I will take a look and see if I can find something that might help you. Thanks
awesome videos hey can u tell me where u have specified auth servers in this video i tried the same watching you both video but getting error of badgateway 502
@Sagar Shah, thanks for watching! I am not using any authentication mechanism in this app. I built an open API. Bad gateway might be because the API Gateway do not have access to the Lambda, I mentioned that during this video, and it really is done out of box by the API gateway.
Here we are using token from existing app and passing to ocelot api.but in real world the ocelot api should expose something so that valid user can generate token right ?
@Abhinav Singh, in real life as well the operation will be similar. The responsibility of the token provider is completely isolated from the API Gateway and it should be served by a third-party server. Which can be any of the cloud token providers or one of your own. API Gateway should not be in the business of providing tokens. That is the architectural principle I use.
@@DotNetCoreCentral so first time when user will call ocelote api ,user will send login credential to api.Then ocelote api will route to another service( token provider) whose route is configured in ocelote api.now if credential are fine then token will be returned which will use by user for successive call.my understanding is correct ?
@Indranil Baidya, the URL in IIS will be based on whatever virtual directory you are creating it inside. I do not think Ocelot supports anything below .Net Core 3.1 based on what I have seen its project configuration here: github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/blob/master/src/Ocelot/Ocelot.csproj
@Aman Gupta, routing POST, GET, DELETE, PUT all are done the same way. There is no fundamental difference between HTTP method types when it comes to Ocelot API Gateway.
@M A, for query string parameters nothing specific needs to happen, as long as the base path is configured, whatever is in query string will be passed along.

I had to figure this out myself because in your video it was not mentioned how to get authentication to work - Token Server's secret key string MUST match with ocelot.demo project in order to properly authenticate and successfully get the external api
@Parth Vohra, I created a new WEB API project in ASP.NET Core 3.1 as a part of the video, when you create a new Web API project, by default it comes with a weather controller. The data comes from an in-memory data structure. Hope this answers your question. Thanks for watching!

Hi, Your video is very helpful. Can I implement Api gateway with Old aspnet.mvc web app. Do i need to separate the view from the MVC controller. How would that work.
