I don't think it is necessary to support all the endpoint supported from ESB. Following endpoint type would be sufficient in API-M context.
- Address EP - HTTP EP - We dynamically formulate the EP address based on URI Templates. These EPs should be able to cater most of the requirements. Do we have to support LB/FO at API-GW level?
