AllyGateway: a secure, scalable, fast, resilient and intelligent USSD to HTTP proxy, enabling mobile banking in rural locations.

CoreBlue Ltd （‘CoreBlue‘）正在寻求创建一个通用中间件，’**AllyGateway**’，允许服务用户（如银行应用程序）通过使用创新的碎片和修复过程，在没有活跃互联网连接的情况下继续使用应用程序，减少资源需求并实现处理能力的自动可扩展性。移动应用程序通过web api与服务交互，从而促进实时数据通信。在许多应用程序中，离线优先的方法允许用户将操作存储在他们的设备上，以便在互联网恢复时与服务同步。这不适用于银行等服务，因为这些服务的操作必须立即与后端同步。AllyGateway将使数据传输通过数据流被打破和广播在USSD。网关允许用户通过USSD请求和发送数据，USSD是一种独立于互联网的协议。然而，服务非常局限于短的、基于菜单的系统，允许用户：*查看余额*转账*支付账单通过单独的应用程序，通常操作一个“基于文本”的界面，而不是为智能手机用户设计的，并把用户从他们的原生，第一方移动应用程序。为了克服当前互联网独立通信的挑战，AllyGateway的主要目标是充当现有系统之间的一层，易于集成，因此服务提供商仍然受到现有设置的支持——同时CoreBlue的API中间件可以开始运行并引入创新功能。AllyGateway将提供：*无需主动互联网连接即可访问核心互联网服务*可嵌入现有智能手机应用程序的本地移动工具*无风险集成：AllyGateway将作为现有系统的“层”，而不是取代核心服务。AllyGateway促进代理的国际活动，以便公众可以在互联网停电期间继续通信\[BBCNews,2023\]，同时保持所需的高水平隐私/安全，并且可以与未来的研发应用无关。

Core Blue Ltd ('CoreBlue') is seeking to create a universal middleware, '**AllyGateway**' that allows users of services such as banking apps, to continue to use applications without an active internet connection through using an innovative fragment and repair process, reducing resource requirements and enabling automatic scalability of processing power.Mobile applications interact with services through web APIs that facilitate real-time data communication. In many applications, an offline-first approach allows users to store actions on their devices to be synced with the service when the internet returns. This isn't suitable for services like banking where actions must be synced immediately with the backend. AllyGateway will enable data transfer by passing through data streams that are broken and broadcast over the USSD.Gateways exist to allow users to request and send data over USSD, a protocol independent of the internet. However, services are very limited to short, menu-based systems that allow users to:* View balances* Transfer money* Pay billsThrough separate applications typically operating a "Text-based" interface not designed for smartphone users and taking users away from their native, 1st party mobile application.To overcome the current challenges of internet-independent communication, AllyGateway will be built with the primary objective of acting as a layer between existing systems, with ease of integration so service providers are still supported by existing setup - whilst CoreBlue's API middleware can begin operating and introducing innovative functionality.AllyGateway will provide:* Access to core internet-based services without an active internet connection* Native mobile tools that can be embedded into existing smartphone applications* Risk-Free Integration: AllyGateway will act as a 'layer' to existing systems, not replacing core servicesAllyGateway facilitates international campaigns for proxies so the public can continue to communicate during internet blackouts\[BBCNews,2023\], whilst maintaining the high-levels of privacy/security required and can be application-agnostic with future R&D.
