01 / Overview
A systems engineering concept for receiving webhook events, validating and routing them to downstream destinations, and making delivery behavior observable. It emphasizes controlled retries, idempotency, and clear failure handling.
02 / Challenge
Integrations need to keep working when destinations slow down, events are repeated, or traffic spikes. A router must show what happened to each event and avoid hiding delivery failures behind a simple success counter.
- /Bursts can overwhelm downstream destinations.
- /Repeated events can cause duplicate processing.
- /Retry behavior and delivery failures need clear observability.
03 / Proposed capabilities
- 01Receive and validate signed webhook requests
- 02Route events by tenant, event type, or configured rules
- 03Queue deliveries with bounded retries and dead-letter handling
- 04Track idempotency keys and delivery attempts
- 05Inspect latency, throughput, and failure rates by destination
