Kapow! HTTP Interfaces

kapow server sets up three HTTP server interfaces, each with a distinct and clear purpose.

HTTP User Interface

The HTTP User Interface is used to serve final user requests.

By default it binds to address 0.0.0.0 and port 8080, but that can be changed via the --bind flag.

HTTP Control Interface

The HTTP Control Interface is used by the command kapow route to administer the list of system routes.

By default it binds to address 127.0.0.1 and port 8081, but that can be changed via the --control-bind flag.

HTTP Data Interface

The HTTP Data Interface is used by the commands kapow get and kapow set to exchange the data for a particular request.

By default it binds to address 127.0.0.1 and port 8082, but that can be changed via the --data-bind flag.
