Introduction

Since the Defender version (1.5X) they have enabled the creation of microservice type flows in DataFlow. They use existing Datacollector technology and can be visited here: Datacollector microservice pipeline

What is a microservice flow?

A microservice is a lightweight component that is integrated into a larger system, e.g., it provides access to user data. A microservice architecture comprises a set of independent microservices, often implemented as RESTful web services that communicate using JSON over HTTP, that together implement the functionality of a system, rather than a single monolithic application.

How do I create it in the platform?

You must go to the Dataflows list by navigating in the menu on the left.

Open

Click on create new.

Open

A window will appear where you can choose the type of flow, in this case microservice.

And it will take us to a flow where we will be able to configure actions depending on the http method used. An example using the platform components.
