I don't really understand why you want it to be integrated with
RESTBase. As far as I can tell (it is hard to pin these things down),
RESTBase is a revision storage backend and possibly a public API for
that backend. I thought the idea of SOA was to separate concerns.
Wouldn't monitoring, caching and authorization would be best done as a
node.js library which RESTBase and other services use?
