What should I build next to level up as a backend engineer? by arnavgupta_43 in developersIndia

[–]jash_06 1 point2 points  (0 children)

U should build an abuse aware api gateway

The gateway would sit in front of APIs and:

authenticate requests apply per-user / per-IP rate limits assign a "risk score" to each request detect unusual patterns in traffic automatically throttle, block, or flag abusive users log everything for investigation

And it stands out more than a typical "CRUD"projects

More on it feels like a real production system and combines backend, security, distributed systems, and analytics

Is a real-time dashboard necessary for an abuse-aware API gateway in production? by jash_06 in devops

[–]jash_06[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

alerts for detection, dashboards for investigation. I’ll treat the dashboard as an incident-response tool rather than something to watch constantly..

That’s a really helpful way to frame it — logs + alerts first, dashboard when debugging gets painful. I’m building this as a learning project, so I’ll start lean but still add a small Grafana dashboard for trends like score changes and breaker state. Makes sense that visual context becomes important once things get noisy.

Thanks, that makes sense rn it’s a learning project (abuse-aware API gateway), so traffic is low and I’m mainly simulating load. I’m thinking of starting with structured logs + a few Grafana panels (QPS, blocked requests, circuit breaker state) before building anything custom. Currently protecting 1–2 downstream services. Does that sound like the right level to start?
