I am exploring Kong. I am wondering if I can achieve the following scenario using request transformer plugin.

  • A request is reached at the request transformer plugin.
  • Split the request into three microservice API requests.
  • Call the three APIs sequentially.
  • Merge the response of all three APIs.
  • Send the response back.

I think that is not possible as Kong is not an orchestration/business process/ESB tool. I see two solutions for this use case:

  • Deploy a BPM engine like Camunda, which takes care of orchestrating services

  • Create your own service which does the calls for you and merges the responses
