Microservices at Proximus: Netflix OSS and HATEOAS
summary
Proximus runs microservices in production using Netflix OSS and Spring Cloud: a Zuul gateway with dynamic filters stored in Cassandra enables canary routing and response aggregation per device, Eureka provides service registration with client caching, Ribbon does client-side load balancing, and Hystrix implements circuit breakers with real-time metrics. HAL (Spring HATEOAS) is chosen for hypermedia contracts to avoid client breakage; Spring Config and Spring REST Docs automate config and contract-accurate documentation.
