OPS API

OPS API is a modular, secure, and rate-limited backend service designed to manage and monitor. It enables fine-grained control over access and concurrency while supporting extensible system endpoints for infrastructure orchestration.

🚀 Overview

This service acts as an intelligent access gateway, making it ideal for scenarios requiring:

• Secure token generation and revocation
• Controlled rate-limited usage patterns
• Service monitoring and automated restarts
• Lightweight deployment with strong modular separation

Whether you're building internal developer tools, automating DevOps pipelines, or protecting microservices, OPS API offers the foundation.
