Week 17: Capstone — Cloud-Edge Security Proxy (Day 120)

Phase 4 Final: Day 120 is assembly day. Every component was built and tested in Weeks 1–16. Today you wire them together into a single production-ready binary: the Cloud-Edge Security Proxy.

1 chapter · 11 min of reading

Why this day matters: This is the deliverable that demonstrates 120 days of work. ~4000–6000 lines of Go, zero external dependencies, every component built from scratch using the standard library. This is the architecture of Cloudflare's edge, AWS WAF + ALB, and Fastly's compute platform — in one binary.


Background in this wiki: HTTPS guide Part 9 (the server side, built in Go); TCP/IP guide Part 13 (professional networking); Linux guide Ch 82 (shipping the service); OSI guide, Part 15.
