TECHNIQUES FOR CONSISTENT MULTI-TENANT BEHAVIOR IN MICROSERVICES BASED APPLICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18231748 titled 'TECHNIQUES FOR CONSISTENT MULTI-TENANT BEHAVIOR IN MICROSERVICES BASED APPLICATIONS

Simplified Explanation

This patent application describes a technique for using a multi-tenant framework in a microservices-based application to handle tenant-specific circuit breaking. Here are the key points:

  • The application uses a multi-tenant framework to provide functionality for a microservice.
  • When a microservice receives an indication that another microservice is overloaded, it can receive a request containing tenant context data.
  • The multi-tenant framework extracts the tenant context data from the request.
  • The microservice then determines if the tenant context data corresponds to the tenant in question.
  • If it does, the microservice triggers a circuit breaker for the overloaded microservice.

Overall, this technique allows for efficient handling of tenant-specific circuit breaking in a microservices-based application using a multi-tenant framework.


Original Abstract Submitted

Techniques are disclosed for using a multi-tenant framework for microservices in a microservices-based application to handle tenant-specific circuit breaking. The microservices-based application can include at least one microservice that incorporates the multi-tenant framework. The multi-tenant framework includes software components configured to provide multi-tenant functionality for the microservice. A first microservice may receive an indication associated with a tenant that a second microservice is overloaded. The first microservice can then receive a request containing tenant context data at an interface. A first software component of the multi-tenant framework can extract the tenant context data from the request. The first microservice may determine whether the tenant context data corresponds to the tenant. The first microservice can then trigger a circuit breaker for the second microservice.
