Example use cases:
We have an Alexa integration which currently runs on webMethods and would like to have a microservice variant of that. Amazon requires of you to provide an unauthenticated REST endpoint and that you validate the certificate to ensure the request comes from Amazon.
With ADAMOS we are thinking about device onboarding functionality that does not use the bootstrap user concept employed by C8Y
This would allow to move some Cumulocity internal services to Kubernetes (e.g. tracker agent, Lora integration which requires a callback)
This would allow to bundle UI assets into a microservice and serve a backend / UI application as one service
I have the same requirement for some protocols implement that require direct access by gateways.
This could be handled by a white list mechanism.
