Requirements: Fengling Gateway

Defined: 2026-03-02 Core Value: Reliable, scalable API gateway that distributes traffic to backend microservices with zero-downtime configuration updates.

v1 Requirements

Requirements for initial release. Each maps to roadmap phases.

Configuration Management

  • CFG-01: Gateway listens to config change events from fengling-console
  • CFG-02: Gateway reloads configuration without restart when notified
  • CFG-03: Multi-instance gateway receives config updates via broadcast (Redis pub/sub or PostgreSQL NOTIFY)

Multi-Instance Support

  • INST-01: Multiple gateway instances can run simultaneously
  • INST-02: Configuration changes propagate to all instances
  • INST-03: Redis-based pub/sub for cross-instance communication

K8s Health Delegation

  • K8S-01: Remove K8s health monitoring from gateway
  • K8S-02: Gateway delegates service health checks to console

Security Fixes

  • SEC-01: Remove hardcoded credentials from source code
  • SEC-02: Implement proper JWT token validation
  • SEC-03: Add authentication to gateway management API endpoints

Performance

  • PERF-01: Optimize load balancing lock contention
  • PERF-02: Implement incremental route cache updates

v2 Requirements

Deferred to future release. Tracked but not in current roadmap.

Observability

  • OBS-01: Distributed tracing integration
  • OBS-02: Custom metrics for gateway performance

Testing

  • TEST-01: Unit tests for RouteCache
  • TEST-02: Unit tests for JwtTransformMiddleware
  • TEST-03: Unit tests for load balancing policy

Out of Scope

Feature Reason
Direct gateway configuration UI Handled by fengling-console
K8s service health checks in gateway Delegated to console
Authentication logic in gateway Handled by auth-service
Authorization logic in gateway Handled by downstream services

Traceability

Which phases cover which requirements. Updated during roadmap creation.
