Summary

Convoy is an open-source webhooks gateway designed to enhance the management of webhooks by providing robust features such as retries, rate limiting, and zero-downtime secrets upgrades. It aims to improve developer productivity through shared services across teams, aligning with modern platform engineering practices. Convoy v0.9 introduces integration with message brokers such as Google PubSub and Amazon SQS, allowing asynchronous communication that better suits webhook events' nature by enabling publish/subscribe patterns. This integration addresses limitations of the HTTP protocol, such as lack of message delivery guarantees and fault tolerance, while enhancing scalability, loose coupling, and high availability. Using message brokers allows for more flexible and robust webhook infrastructure, capable of handling large-scale, complex microservices with increased throughput and performance. Convoy Cloud invites users to explore these features and join their community for further engagement and demonstrations.
