!!! tip
    All this might seem contrived. And it might not be very clear how is it useful yet.

    These examples are intentionally simple, but show how it all works.

    In the chapters about security, there are utility functions that are implemented in this same way.

### Platforms

The platforms and their architecture modules are:

#### Core automation platform

This is a general purpose automation platform, which takes care of the efficient definition and execution of work, such as tasks.
This platform is agnostic to what exactly the purpose of the work is.

But first, let's check some small concepts.

## In a hurry?

If you don't care about any of these terms and you just need to add security with authentication based on username and password *right now*, skip to the next chapters.

## OAuth2

OAuth2 is a specification that defines several ways to handle authentication and authorization.

It is quite an extensive specification and covers several complex use cases.

          || info.getName().contains("TypeTokenTest")
      /*
       * Luckily, we don't care about analyzing tests at all. We'd skip them all if we could do so
       * trivially, but it's enough to skip these ones.
       */
      ) {
        continue;
      }
      Class<?> clazz = info.load();
      try {

      try {

      throw new UnsupportedOperationException("test should not care about this");
    }

    @Override
    public long getDelay(TimeUnit unit) {
      throw new UnsupportedOperationException("test should not care about this");

   * nodes. This is an O(n) operation in the common case (and O(n^2) in the worst), but we are saved
   * by two things.
   *
   * <ul>
   *   <li>This is only called when a waiting thread times out or is interrupted. Both of which
   *       should be rare.
   *   <li>The waiters list should be very short.
   * </ul>

  private void removeWaiter(Waiter node) {

* If a socket is not found, istio-agent then checks whether certificate files are present or not on the defined **certificate path** `/var/run/secrets/workload-spiffe-credentials`. If certificate files are found, istio-agent will start its own SDS Server, listening and serving these certificates on the defined **socket path** `/var/run/secrets/workload-spiffe-uds/socket`,

    A `Request` also has a `request.receive`, that's a function to "receive" the body of the request.

    The `scope` `dict` and `receive` function are both part of the ASGI specification.

    And those two things, `scope` and `receive`, are what is needed to create a new `Request` instance.
