Request mapping takes an inbound request into the gateway and maps it to the microservice that can handle that request. Mapping should take place as follows:
microservice is the name of the client microservice that can handle the request
The host and port of the registered microservice is used and the remainder of the URL is passed to the microservice, so the URL becomes http://host:port/items
The request is sent to the microservice
The response is then sent back to the client through the gateway
Interception should take place before and after mapping
