Middleware is a layer that facilitates interaction between different components or applications. In the context of Python and web development, the following types of middleware are commonly encountered:
- WSGI Middleware — used in Python web applications to handle HTTP requests and responses (e.g., middleware in Django or Flask).
- Authentication and Authorization Middleware — verifies user access rights.
- Logging Middleware — records information about requests and errors.
- Session Management Middleware — manages user sessions.
- Error Handling Middleware — intercepts exceptions and generates correct responses.
- Caching Middleware — speeds up request processing by storing results.
In other contexts, middleware may include message brokers (RabbitMQ, Kafka), API gateways, proxy servers, etc.
