Secure GraphQL endpoints in Spring reactive applications
Posted on December 25, 2023, Level intermediate Resource Length medium
Spring Supports GraphQL requests over HTTP, Websockets and RSockets. Securing an Spring GraphQL application does not differ from securing a Web application. Mainly, Spring GraphQL needs to ensure context propagates from WebFlux to the data fetching layer so that we can use Security annotations or access the authenticated principal in @SchemaMapping methods. This should work for HTTP and WebSocket. By Ruchira Madhushan Rajapaksha.

How container networking works at Platform.sh
Posted on November 2, 2023, Level intermediate Resource Length medium
We'll take a look at how we wire (most of) it up. In particular, we'll go over the role of the Platform.sh edge layer, and describe in detail how we network hosts and containers together. From the networking perspective, our job is to make sure that a request directed towards your web server reaches the right container, and that container is able to communicate with other containers that your hosted application depends upon, all while making sure that someone else's container cannot talk to one of your containers.
