Can we deploy SOA/Microservices Architecture to App Platform ?

Question

Hello,

I was wondering if we could deploy multiple microservices as “workers” and one API-gateway as “service”.

Did my API-gateway can communicate to my microservices through TCP/HTTP protocol if they are “workers” ? If it’s the case, how ?
Or did I have to declare all my microservices as “services” but they will became available to the public internet, so the API-gateway is no longer the source of truth, each microservices have to check authentication if they are publicly accessible. Is it possible to declare a “service” as private-only ?

Thanks,

Hello, “internal services” are possible using internal_ports property in the app spec and without http_port property.

name: sample-golang
services:
- name: intsvc1
  github:
    repo: digitalocean/sample-golang
    branch: master
  internal_ports:
  - 3000

The internal service should be addressable with just the component name.
