netflix-zuul

I am currently developing a application based on a micro service architecture. We use a API-Gateway implemented using Spring Cloud Netfix's Zuul Server to route the requests to our micro services. To realize single sign on for all our services I am currently working on an OAuth2 server set up using Spring Cloud Security. The server is basically just copy and past of the implementation in Dave Syer's Repo: https://github.com/dsyer/spring-security-angular/tree/master/oauth2/authserver The main difference is that I want to route the requests to my OAuth server through the Zuul Proxy.

Background I want to implement the design presented in this article . It can be summarised by the diagram below: The client first authenticate with the IDP (OpenID Connect/OAuth2) The IDP returns an access token (opaque token with no user info) The client makes a call through the API gateway use the access token in the Authorization header The API gateway makes a request to the IDP with the Access Token The IDP verifies that the Access Token is valid and returns user information in JSON format The API Gateway store the user information in a JWT and sign it with a private key.
