Approach 1 :

Constraint Provider service is a new service
Entity service will check with constraint provider service before its operation

Example:

• Entity service will check with constraint provider for limits before creation of entity
• Messaging service will check with constraint provider for rate limits and message per second before the publish or subscribe of message.

In this approach , since constraint provider is a separate service, we can move them to API Gateway in future

Approach 2:

Constraint Provider as library , which can wrapped with service layer like logging and metrics .
Constraint Provider will be like a middleware. So when ever service request pass through constraint provider, it will check for constraint provided in configuration file.

Example:

• Entity service constraint provider middleware will check for limits before creation of entity.
• Messaging service will check with constraint provider for rate limits and message per second before the publish or subscribe of message.

Approach 3:

Constraint Provider implementation in Database as Trigger.
Whenever service starts, it should get configuration from source and create new trigger in database.

Common Spec for all approaches:

A configuration can be stored in

• TOML file
• Database
• External System like Stripe

configuration should load to memory on start.
If there is any change in configuration source data, it should automatically update the configuration memory on the fly.
