app.get("/health", (req, res) => {
  const report = production.performance.getPerformanceReport();
  res.json({
    status: "healthy",
    performance: report,
    timestamp: new Date().toISOString(),
  });
});
```

const apiManager = presets.api({
  auth: authSDK,
  security: securitySDK,
  observability: observabilitySDK,
});

// Secure preset with enhanced security patterns
const secureManager = presets.secure({
  auth: authSDK,
  security: securitySDK,

  })
  .use("rateLimit", {
    windowMs: 15 * 60 * 1000,
    max: 100,
  })
  .build();
```

## 🏗️ Advanced Enterprise Features

### **🔄 Circuit Breaker Pattern**

```typescript
import {
  createResilientMiddleware,
  CircuitBreakerState,
} from "@iota-big3/sdk-middleware";

const resilientFactory = createResilientMiddleware({
  intervalMs: 30000, // Health check interval
  unhealthyThreshold: 3, // Failures before opening
  healthyThreshold: 2, // Successes before closing
});

// Monitor circuit breaker state
resilientFactory.onStateChange((state: CircuitBreakerState) => {
  console.log(`Circuit breaker state changed to: ${state}`);
  if (state === CircuitBreakerState.OPEN) {
    // Alert operations team
    alerting.send("Circuit breaker opened - service degraded");
  }
});
```

### **⚡ Performance Monitoring**

```typescript
import {
  createOptimizedMiddleware,
  PerformanceConfig,
} from "@iota-big3/sdk-middleware";

const performanceConfig: PerformanceConfig = {
  enableProfiling: true,
  enableMemoryTracking: true,
  enableRequestSizeTracking: true,
  sampleRate: 0.1, // Sample 10% of requests
  slowRequestThreshold: 1000, // 1 second threshold
  memoryLeakThreshold: 50 * 1024 * 1024, // 50MB threshold
};

const optimizedFactory = createOptimizedMiddleware(
  performanceConfig,
  { defaultTtlMs: 300000 } // 5-minute cache TTL
);

// Get detailed performance report
app.get("/metrics", (req, res) => {
  const report = optimizedFactory.getPerformanceReport();
  res.json({
    performance: report.performance,
    memory: report.memory,
    cache: report.cache,
    uptime: report.uptime,
  });
});
```

### **🛡️ Type-Safe Runtime Validation**

```typescript
import {
  isJsonValue,
  isAuthUser,
  extractHeaderString,
  validateJsonBody,
} from "@iota-big3/sdk-middleware";

// Runtime validation with type guards
app.post("/api/users", (req, res, next) => {
  // Validate request body
  const bodyValidation = validateJsonBody(req.body);
  if (!bodyValidation.success) {
    return res.status(400).json({ error: bodyValidation.error });
  }

  // Extract and validate authorization header
  const token = extractHeaderString(req.headers.authorization);
  if (!token) {
    return res.status(401).json({ error: "Missing authorization token" });
  }

  // Validate user object from auth result
  if (req.user && !isAuthUser(req.user)) {
    return res.status(500).json({ error: "Invalid user data format" });
  }

  next();
});
```

## 🎛️ Framework Integration

### **Express Integration**

```typescript
import express from "express";
import { applyToExpress, presets } from "@iota-big3/sdk-middleware";

const app = express();
const manager = presets.production(sdkIntegrations);

// Apply middleware with error handling
applyToExpress(app, manager);

// Health check endpoint
app.get("/health", (req, res) => {
  const health = manager.getHealth();
  res.status(health.healthy ? 200 : 503).json(health);
});
```

### **Fastify Integration**

```typescript
import fastify from "fastify";
import { applyToFastify, presets } from "@iota-big3/sdk-middleware";

const server = fastify();
const manager = presets.api(sdkIntegrations);

// Apply middleware with async/await support
await applyToFastify(server, manager);

// Performance metrics endpoint
server.get("/metrics", async (request, reply) => {
  const metrics = manager.getMetrics();
  reply.send(metrics);
});
```

## 📊 Monitoring & Observability

### **Real-Time Metrics**

```typescript
// Performance monitoring
const performanceMetrics = manager.getPerformanceReport();
console.log("P95 Latency:", performanceMetrics.summary.p95ExecutionTime);
console.log("Memory Growth:", performanceMetrics.memory?.memoryGrowth);

// Health status monitoring
const health = manager.getHealth();
console.log("Service Health:", health.status);
console.log("Circuit Breaker State:", health.circuitBreaker);

// Event-driven monitoring
manager.on("middleware:executed", (event) => {
  if (event.duration > 1000) {
    logger.warn("Slow middleware execution", event);
  }
});

manager.on("error", (error) => {
  logger.error("Middleware error", error);
  metrics.increment("middleware.errors");
});
```

### **Production Deployment Health Checks**

```typescript
// Kubernetes-ready health endpoints
app.get("/health/live", (req, res) => {
  // Liveness probe - basic service availability
  res.status(200).json({ status: "alive" });
});

app.get("/health/ready", (req, res) => {
  // Readiness probe - service ready to handle traffic
  const health = manager.getHealth();
  const status = health.healthy ? 200 : 503;
  res.status(status).json({
    status: health.healthy ? "ready" : "not-ready",
    checks: health.checks,
    circuitBreaker: health.circuitBreaker,
    timestamp: new Date().toISOString(),
  });
});
```

## 🔧 Configuration Options

## 🏆 Architecture Excellence

### **Delegation, Not Duplication**

Following IOTA Big3 SDK architectural principles:

- **Authentication** → Delegates to `@iota-big3/sdk-auth`
- **Security & Validation** → Delegates to `@iota-big3/sdk-security`
- **Logging & Metrics** → Delegates to `@iota-big3/sdk-observability`
- **Health Checks** → Delegates to `@iota-big3/sdk-integration`

### **Enterprise Patterns**

- **Circuit Breaker Pattern** - Prevents cascade failures
- **Retry Pattern** - Handles transient failures
- **Observer Pattern** - Event-driven architecture
- **Factory Pattern** - Flexible middleware creation
- **Strategy Pattern** - Configurable execution modes

## 🚨 Error Handling

### **Graceful Degradation**

```typescript
// Circuit breaker prevents cascade failures
manager.on("circuitBreaker:open", () => {
  // Service degraded but operational
  logger.warn("Circuit breaker opened - entering degraded mode");
});

// Retry with exponential backoff
manager.on("retry:attempt", ({ attempt, error }) => {
  logger.info(`Retry attempt ${attempt} for error: ${error.message}`);
});

// Health check failure handling
manager.on("healthCheck:failed", ({ service, error }) => {
  logger.error(`Health check failed for ${service}: ${error.message}`);
});
```

## 🔐 Security Best Practices

### **Production Security**

```typescript
// Secure preset with enhanced validation
const secureManager = presets.secure({
  auth: authSDK,
  security: securitySDK,
  observability: observabilitySDK,
});

// Runtime input validation
app.use(
  secureManager.createValidationMiddleware(apiSchema, {
    stripUnknown: true, // Remove unknown properties
    abortEarly: false, // Collect all validation errors
    sanitizeInput: true, // Sanitize malicious input
  })
);

// Rate limiting with security focus
app.use(
  secureManager.createRateLimitMiddleware({
    windowMs: 15 * 60 * 1000, // 15 minutes
    max: 100, // Limit each IP to 100 requests per windowMs
    message: "Too many requests",
    keyGenerator: (req) => req.ip,
  })
);
```
