BridgeGateIntegration reliability lab
One route · A safer handoff

When one system fails, the work should not disappear.

Businesses connect stores, payment systems and internal tools. BridgeGate explores how a gateway can accept an event, send it to an approved destination, retry temporary failures and record the outcome.

Fictional browser walkthrough. This page simulates the decisions in your browser. It does not send data to a server. The working Node.js gateway, signed local receiver and SQLite audit are in the repository and can be tested on your computer.
01 / ACCEPT

Check the caller

A client key and request shape must be valid.

02 / ROUTE

Fixed destination

The sender cannot choose an arbitrary URL.

03 / DELIVER

Retry safely

A stable key and signature accompany each attempt.

04 / RECORD

Keep evidence

Store the state and a redacted audit event.

Try the delivery path

The fictional receiver fails once with HTTP 503, then accepts a retry with HTTP 200.

Ready to send

Use the same key again to see a stored result instead of another delivery.

Audit trail

This illustration records state changes without showing a token, signing secret or document content.

  1. Waiting for a fictional request.

The repository also tests rate limits, unauthorized requests, concurrent duplicates, persistent replay after restart, and a circuit breaker. These safeguards need deployment review and a receiver that honors the idempotency key before real integration use.
