ByteByteGo·3yEP65: What Is A Webhook
This week's system design refresher: Stack Overflow's Architecture: A Very Interesting Case Study. What is a webhook? The diagram below shows a comparison between polling and webhooks. The approach generally depends on the size of a company, but we try to provide a general overview.
ByteByteGo·3yRate Limiter For The Real World
There are many factors to consider when developing a rate limiter for the real world. The requirements can vary based on the nature of our service and the use cases we’re trying to support. For a real-time service like a bidding platform where latency could be highly critical, we would need a rateLimiter that doesn’t add significant latency to the overall request time.
DZone·3yAPIs Under Attack
APIs are a crucial part of modern software development, but their importance also makes them a prime target for attackers. API security breaches that have occurred in recent years include the Equifax breach in 2017, and the Twitter API breach in 2020, where attackers used an API exploit to take over high-profile accounts and spread a cryptocurrency scam.
DZone·3yAPI Gateway in Microservices Architecture
API gateway simplifies managing microservices spread over multiple Kubernetes clusters and clouds. API gateway is a server (or L7 proxy) between a client and microservices that acts as a centralized entry point for all clients into the system. It is a reverse proxy that accepts client API calls and forwards them to the appropriate microservice.
Laravel·3yVapor: Multi-level Subdomains

Today, we're thrilled to announce support for multi-level subdomains on Vapor. To take advantage of this feature, first, ensure the root domain is added as a domain to Vapor.
