+* **19/09/2025 - 0.26.x** - Major security enhancements: Fixed SQL injection vulnerability in event cleaner, added path traversal protection, implemented optional API authentication, enhanced log sanitization to prevent sensitive data exposure, and consolidated buffer pool implementations for better performance.
 * **06/12/2024 - 0.25.12** - Fixes the bug where deeply nested introspection queries were blocked despite of being present on the whitelist. GraphQL proxy will now inspect the queries in depth to find any possible nested introspections.
 
 * **20/08/2024 - 0.23.21+** - Fixes the bug when timeouts were not respected on proxy-graphql line. Affected versions before that were timeouting after 30 seconds which was set as default ( thanks to Jurica Železnjak for reporting ).

 ### Speed
 
+#### Request Coalescing
+
+Request coalescing (also known as request deduplication) is a powerful optimization that reduces backend load by combining multiple concurrent identical requests into a single backend call. This feature is enabled by default via `REQUEST_COALESCING_ENABLE=true`.
+
+**How it works:**
+- When multiple clients send identical GraphQL queries simultaneously, only one request is forwarded to the backend
+- All other concurrent identical requests wait for the first request to complete
+- Once the response is received, it's shared with all waiting clients
+- This can reduce backend load by 50-80% in high-traffic scenarios with repeated queries
+
+**Benefits:**
+- Dramatically reduces backend load during traffic spikes
+- Prevents "thundering herd" problems when cache expires
+- Improves response times for coalesced requests (they don't need to wait for backend processing)
+- Zero additional latency for the primary request
+
+**Monitoring:**
+The admin dashboard (`/admin`) provides real-time statistics:
+- Total requests vs. primary requests
+- Number of coalesced requests
+- Backend savings percentage
+
+**Configuration:**
+```bash
+# Enable request coalescing (default: true)
+GMP_REQUEST_COALESCING_ENABLE=true
+```
+
+**Use Cases:**
+- High-traffic applications with popular queries
+- Applications with many concurrent users
+- APIs with expensive backend operations
+- Mobile/web apps where users often perform the same actions simultaneously
+
+#### Retry Budget
+
+The retry budget prevents retry storms and cascading failures by limiting the rate at which retries can occur. This is a critical resilience feature enabled by default.
+
+**How it works:**
+- Uses a token bucket algorithm: tokens are generated at a fixed rate
+- Each retry attempt consumes one token
+- When tokens are exhausted, retries are denied until tokens are refilled
+- Automatic refill ensures the system can recover naturally
+
+**Benefits:**
+- Prevents retry storms that can overwhelm recovering backends
+- Reduces cascading failures across services
+- Maintains predictable load during outages
+- Allows graceful degradation instead of complete failure
+
+**Configuration:**
+```bash
+# Enable retry budget (default: true)
+GMP_RETRY_BUDGET_ENABLE=true
+
+# Tokens generated per second (default: 10)
+GMP_RETRY_BUDGET_TOKENS_PER_SEC=10.0
+
+# Maximum tokens that can accumulate (default: 100)
+GMP_RETRY_BUDGET_MAX_TOKENS=100
+```
+
+**Production Recommendations:**
+- **High traffic (1000+ req/s)**: Set `TOKENS_PER_SEC=50`, `MAX_TOKENS=500`
+- **Medium traffic (100-1000 req/s)**: Use defaults (10 tokens/s, 100 max)
+- **Low traffic (<100 req/s)**: Set `TOKENS_PER_SEC=5`, `MAX_TOKENS=50`
+
+**Monitoring:**
+The admin dashboard shows:
+- Current available tokens
+- Total retry attempts
+- Denied retries
+- Denial rate percentage
+
+#### WebSocket Support
+
+Native WebSocket support enables GraphQL subscriptions and real-time features. Enable via `WEBSOCKET_ENABLE=true`.
+
+**Features:**
+- Bidirectional proxying between client and backend
+- Automatic ping/pong keep-alive
+- Configurable message size limits
+- Connection statistics and monitoring
+- Graceful connection handling
+
+**Configuration:**
+```bash
+# Enable WebSocket support
+GMP_WEBSOCKET_ENABLE=true
+
+# Ping interval (seconds)
+GMP_WEBSOCKET_PING_INTERVAL=30
+
+# Pong timeout (seconds)
+GMP_WEBSOCKET_PONG_TIMEOUT=60
+
+# Max message size (bytes)
+GMP_WEBSOCKET_MAX_MESSAGE_SIZE=524288  # 512KB
+```
+
+**Example GraphQL Subscription:**
+```graphql
+subscription OnNewMessage {
+  messages {
+    id
+    content
+    createdAt
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Monitoring:**
+The admin dashboard (`/admin`) provides:
+- Active WebSocket connections
+- Total connections handled
+- Messages sent/received
+- Connection errors
+
 #### Caching
 
 The cache engine is enabled in the background by default, using no additional resources.
 You can then start using the cache by setting the `ENABLE_GLOBAL_CACHE` or `ENABLE_REDIS_CACHE` environment variable to `true` - which will enable the cache for all queries without introspection. You can leave the global cache disabled and enable the cache for specific queries by adding the `@cached` directive to the query.
 
+**Important**: The cache key is calculated from the **entire request body**, which includes both the GraphQL query and variables. This means:
+- Identical queries with different variables are cached separately
+- Identical queries with different variable values get their own cache entries
+- This ensures correct caching behavior for parameterized queries
+
+Example:
+```graphql
+# These two requests will have DIFFERENT cache keys:
+query GetUser($id: ID!) { user(id: $id) { name } }
+variables: { "id": "123" }
+
+query GetUser($id: ID!) { user(id: $id) { name } }
+variables: { "id": "456" }
+```
+
 In the case of the `@cached` you can add additional parameters to the directive which will set the cache for specific queries to the provided time.
 For example, `query MyCachedQuery @cached(ttl: 90) ....` will set the cache for the query to 90 seconds.
 
@@ -201,6 +378,44 @@ query MyProducts @cached(refresh: true) {
 }
 ```
 
+#### Memory-Aware Caching
+
+Starting with version `0.26.0`, the memory cache implementation has been enhanced with memory-aware features to prevent out-of-memory situations:
+
+- **Memory limits**: Set maximum memory usage via `CACHE_MAX_MEMORY_SIZE` (default: 100MB)
+- **Entry limits**: Set maximum number of entries via `CACHE_MAX_ENTRIES` (default: 10,000)
+- **Smart eviction**: When limits are reached, the cache will automatically evict the least recently used entries
+- **Compression**: Large cache entries are automatically compressed to reduce memory footprint
+- **Memory monitoring**: Memory usage is tracked and reported in metrics
+
+Example configurations:
+
+*Basic memory-aware caching:*
+```bash
+GMP_ENABLE_GLOBAL_CACHE=true
+GMP_CACHE_TTL=60
+GMP_CACHE_MAX_MEMORY_SIZE=100
+GMP_CACHE_MAX_ENTRIES=10000
+```
+
+*High-performance caching for large responses:*
+```bash
+GMP_ENABLE_GLOBAL_CACHE=true
+GMP_CACHE_TTL=300
+GMP_CACHE_MAX_MEMORY_SIZE=500
+GMP_CACHE_MAX_ENTRIES=5000
+```
+
+*Resource-constrained environment:*
+```bash
+GMP_ENABLE_GLOBAL_CACHE=true
+GMP_CACHE_TTL=120
+GMP_CACHE_MAX_MEMORY_SIZE=50
+GMP_CACHE_MAX_ENTRIES=1000
+```
+
+These features ensure the cache runs efficiently even under high load and with large response payloads. The memory-aware cache prevents memory leaks and resource exhaustion while maintaining performance benefits.
+
 Since version `0.5.30` the cache is gzipped in the memory, which should optimise the memory usage quite significantly.
 Since version `0.15.48` the you can also use the distributed Redis cache.

+### Resilience
+
+#### Circuit Breaker Pattern
+
+The proxy implements an advanced circuit breaker pattern to prevent cascading failures when backend services are unstable. When enabled via `ENABLE_CIRCUIT_BREAKER=true`, the proxy monitors for failures and automatically trips the circuit based on configurable thresholds.
+
+Key features:
+- **Dual tripping strategies**: Trip on consecutive failures OR failure ratio
+- **Automatic recovery**: The circuit breaker will automatically attempt recovery after a timeout period
+- **Health monitoring endpoint**: Check circuit breaker status via `/api/circuit-breaker/health`
+- **Configurable thresholds**: Set failure thresholds, timeouts, and recovery behavior
+- **Fallback mechanism**: Can serve cached responses when the circuit is open
+- **Selective error filtering**: Configure which HTTP status codes trigger failures
+- **Exponential backoff**: Optional progressive timeout increases for repeated failures

+
+#### Enhanced HTTP Client
+
+The proxy includes an optimized HTTP client with granular controls for timeouts, connection pooling, and TLS verification. This helps improve performance and reliability when communicating with backend GraphQL servers.
+
+Configuration:
+- `CLIENT_READ_TIMEOUT`: HTTP client read timeout in seconds
+- `CLIENT_WRITE_TIMEOUT`: HTTP client write timeout in seconds
+- `CLIENT_MAX_IDLE_CONN_DURATION`: Maximum duration to keep idle connections open (default: `300` seconds)
+- `MAX_CONNS_PER_HOST`: Maximum number of connections per host (default: `1024`)
+- `CLIENT_DISABLE_TLS_VERIFY`: Disable TLS certificate verification (default: `false`)
+#### GraphQL Parsing Optimizations
+
+Version 0.26.0 includes several optimizations to GraphQL query parsing and execution:
+
+- **Query parsing cache**: Identical queries are parsed only once, improving performance for repeated queries
+- **Efficient mutation detection**: Optimized logic for identifying and routing mutations
+- **Memory efficiency**: Improved memory management during GraphQL operations
+- **Enhanced introspection handling**: Better security for introspection queries
+
+These optimizations are applied automatically with no configuration required, resulting in improved performance and reduced resource usage, especially for high-traffic deployments.
+
+
+
+Example configurations:
+
+*High-performance client for low-latency environments:*
+```bash
+GMP_CLIENT_READ_TIMEOUT=1
+GMP_CLIENT_WRITE_TIMEOUT=1
+GMP_CLIENT_MAX_IDLE_CONN_DURATION=60
+GMP_MAX_CONNS_PER_HOST=2048
+```
+
+*Client for high-reliability environments:*
+```bash
+GMP_CLIENT_READ_TIMEOUT=5
+GMP_CLIENT_WRITE_TIMEOUT=5
+GMP_CLIENT_MAX_IDLE_CONN_DURATION=120
+GMP_MAX_CONNS_PER_HOST=1024
+```
+
+#### Connection Resilience and Startup Management
+
+The proxy includes comprehensive connection resilience features to handle backend GraphQL endpoint startup delays and connection recovery scenarios.
+
+##### Startup Readiness Probe
+
+The proxy can wait for the GraphQL backend to become available before accepting traffic, preventing failed requests during backend startup:
+
+```bash
+# Wait up to 5 minutes for backend to be ready (default: 300 seconds)
+GMP_BACKEND_STARTUP_TIMEOUT=300
+```
+
+When enabled, the proxy will:
+- Perform periodic health checks against the GraphQL backend during startup
+- Use exponential backoff with jitter for health check retries
+- Log startup progress and backend readiness status
+- Start accepting traffic only after backend is confirmed healthy
+- Continue startup if backend doesn't respond within the timeout (with warnings)
+
+##### Backend Health Monitoring
+
+Continuous health monitoring runs in the background to detect backend availability:
+
+- **Health Check Interval**: 5 seconds
+- **Health Check Method**: Minimal GraphQL introspection query (`{__typename}`)
+- **Failure Tracking**: Consecutive failure counting with automatic recovery detection
+- **Integration**: Works with circuit breaker and retry mechanisms
+
+##### Intelligent Retry with Connection Awareness
+
+Enhanced retry mechanism that adapts based on backend health and error types:
+
+**Normal Operation (Healthy Backend)**:
+- 7 retry attempts
+- Initial delay: 500ms
+- Maximum delay: 10 seconds
+- Exponential backoff
+
+**Degraded Operation (Unhealthy Backend)**:
+- 10 retry attempts
+- Initial delay: 2 seconds
+- Maximum delay: 30 seconds
+- Longer delays to account for backend recovery time
+
+**Error Classification**:
+- Connection errors (connection refused, reset, etc.): Retryable
+- Timeout errors: Limited retries to prevent cascade failures
+- 4xx client errors: Generally not retryable (except 429, 503)
+- 5xx server errors: Retryable with backoff
+
+##### Connection Pool with Auto-Recovery
+
+Advanced connection pool management with automatic health monitoring and recovery:
+
+**Keep-Alive Mechanism**:
+- Interval: 15 seconds
+- Lightweight GraphQL queries to maintain connection health
+- Automatic failure detection and recovery
+
+**Connection Recovery**:
+- Recovery check interval: 60 seconds
+- Automatic connection pool reset after 5+ consecutive failures
+- Coordinated with backend health status
+
+**Connection Statistics Tracking**:
+- Active connection count
+- Total connection attempts
+- Failure rate monitoring
+- Last recovery attempt timestamp
+
+##### Graceful Degradation
+
+When the backend is unavailable, the proxy provides graceful degradation:
+
+**Cache Fallback** (if circuit breaker configured):
+- Serve cached responses when backend is unavailable
+- Automatic cache hit metrics tracking
+
+**Informative Error Responses**:
+- Standard GraphQL error format with helpful extensions
+- Includes retry recommendations and timeout information
+- Maintains API contract even during failures
+
+**Example Error Response**:
+```json
+{
+  "errors": [{
+    "message": "GraphQL backend is temporarily unavailable",
+    "extensions": {
+      "code": "SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE",
+      "retryable": true,
+      "retry_after": 60
+    }
+  }],
+  "data": null
+}
+```
+
+##### Monitoring and Observability
+
+Connection resilience provides extensive monitoring through API endpoints:
+
+**Backend Health Endpoint**: `/api/backend/health`
+```json
+{
+  "status": "healthy",
+  "backend_url": "http://graphql-backend:4000",
+  "last_health_check": "2024-01-15T10:30:00Z",
+  "consecutive_failures": 0,
+  "check_interval": "5s"
+}
+```
+
+**Connection Pool Health Endpoint**: `/api/connection-pool/health`
+```json
+{
+  "status": "healthy",
+  "active_connections": 12,
+  "total_connections": 1547,
+  "connection_failures": 2,
+  "last_recovery_attempt": "2024-01-15T09:15:00Z",
+  "cleanup_interval": "30s",
+  "keepalive_interval": "15s",
+  "recovery_check_interval": "60s"
+}
+```
+
+##### Production Configuration Example
+
+For high-availability production environments:
+
+```bash
+# Backend startup management
+GMP_BACKEND_STARTUP_TIMEOUT=600  # 10 minutes for complex backends
+
+# Enhanced connection pool
+GMP_MAX_CONNS_PER_HOST=2048
+GMP_CLIENT_MAX_IDLE_CONN_DURATION=300
+
+# Circuit breaker for graceful degradation
+GMP_ENABLE_CIRCUIT_BREAKER=true
+GMP_CIRCUIT_RETURN_CACHED_ON_OPEN=true
+GMP_CIRCUIT_MAX_FAILURES=5
+GMP_CIRCUIT_TIMEOUT_SECONDS=120
+
+# Caching for fallback responses
+GMP_ENABLE_GLOBAL_CACHE=true
+GMP_CACHE_TTL=300
+```
+
+This configuration provides:
+- Extended startup patience for complex GraphQL backends
+- High connection capacity with efficient pooling
+- Circuit breaker protection with cache fallback
+- 5-minute cache retention for fallback scenarios

+#### Advanced Rate Limiting
 
-You can rate limit requests using the `ROLE_RATE_LIMIT` environment variable. If enabled, the proxy will rate limit the requests based on the role claim in the JWT token. You can then provide the JSON file in the following format to specify the limits.
-The default interval is `second`, but you can use other values as well. If you want to disable the rate limiting for a specific role, you can set the `req` to `0`.
+The proxy supports multiple rate limiting strategies to protect your GraphQL endpoint from abuse:
 
-Available values:
-`nano`, `micro`, `milli`, `second`, `minute`, `hour`, `day`
+##### Role-based Rate Limiting
 
-To define path in JWT token where the current user role is present, use the `JWT_ROLE_CLAIM_PATH` environment variable.
+Enable rate limiting based on user roles using the `ROLE_RATE_LIMIT` environment variable. The proxy extracts the role from JWT tokens or headers and applies appropriate limits.
 
-You can also set up the `ROLE_FROM_HEADER` environment variable to extract the role from the header instead of the JWT token. This is useful if you want to rate limit the requests for unauthenticated users. It's worth mentioning that `ROLE_FROM_HEADER` takes a priority over the `JWT_ROLE_CLAIM_PATH` environment variable and if its set, the proxy will not try to extract the role from the JWT token.
+**Configuration:**
+- `JWT_ROLE_CLAIM_PATH`: Path to the role claim in JWT token
+- `ROLE_FROM_HEADER`: Header name to extract role from (takes priority over JWT)
+- `ROLE_RATE_LIMIT`: Enable role-based rate limiting (default: `false`)

+**Features:**
+- **Dynamic configuration reload**: Rate limit configuration is automatically reloaded periodically without restart
+- **Burst control**: Optional burst limits for handling traffic spikes
+- **Per-endpoint limits**: Different rate limits for specific GraphQL endpoints
+- **IP-based limiting**: Additional rate limiting by client IP address

+#### Security Best Practices
+
+The GraphQL monitoring proxy implements several security measures to protect your GraphQL endpoints:
+
+1. **Input Validation**: All user inputs are validated and sanitized to prevent injection attacks. File paths are validated to prevent path traversal attacks.
+
+2. **Parameterized Queries**: Database queries use parameterized statements to prevent SQL injection vulnerabilities.
+
+3. **Log Sanitization**: Sensitive data (passwords, tokens, API keys, credit cards, SSNs) are automatically redacted from debug logs to prevent information disclosure.
+
+4. **Optional API Authentication**: Admin endpoints can be protected with API key authentication when needed, while supporting network-level security for internal deployments.
+
+5. **Rate Limiting**: Role-based rate limiting prevents abuse and DDoS attacks.
+
+6. **GraphQL Query Complexity**: The proxy can analyze and limit query complexity to prevent resource exhaustion attacks.
+
+For production deployments, we recommend:
+- Running the proxy in a secure network segment (VPC, Kubernetes cluster)
+- Using TLS for all connections
+- Enabling authentication for admin APIs in less secure environments
+- Implementing proper monitoring and alerting
+- Regularly updating to the latest version for security patches
+
 ### API endpoints
 
+#### Authentication
+
+The admin API endpoints support optional authentication for flexibility in different deployment scenarios:
+
+- **Without Authentication** (default): When `ADMIN_API_KEY` or `GMP_ADMIN_API_KEY` is not set, the API endpoints are accessible without authentication. This is suitable for internal services protected by network segmentation (firewalls, VPCs, Kubernetes network policies, service mesh, etc.).
+
+- **With Authentication**: When `ADMIN_API_KEY` or `GMP_ADMIN_API_KEY` is set to a value, all admin API requests must include the `X-API-Key` header with the matching key. This provides application-level security for deployments in less secure environments.
+
+Example with authentication enabled:
+```bash
+curl -X POST \
+  http://localhost:9090/api/cache-clear \
+  -H 'X-API-Key: your-secret-key-here' \
+  -H 'Content-Type: application/json'
+```
+
 #### Ban or unban the user
 
 Your monitoring system can detect user misbehaving, for example trying to extract / scrap the data. To prevent user from doing so you can use the simple API to ban the user from accessing the application.
 
-To do so - you need to enable the api by setting env variable `ENABLE_API=true` which will expose the API on the port `API_PORT=9090`. Nedless to say - keep it secure and don't expose it outside of your cluster.

+#### Circuit Breaker Health
 
-Example request:
+* `GET /api/circuit-breaker/health` - get the circuit breaker health status
+
+The circuit breaker health endpoint returns detailed information about the circuit state:
+- Current state (healthy/recovering/unhealthy)
+- Request counts and failure statistics
+- Current configuration
+
+Example response:
+```json
+{
+  "status": "healthy",
+  "state": "closed",
+  "counts": {
+    "requests": 1000,
+    "total_successes": 950,

 Ban details will be stored in the `banned_users.json` file, which you can mount as a file or configmap to the `/go/src/app/banned_users.json` path ( or use `BANNED_USERS_FILE` environment variable to specify the path to the file). The file operation is important if you have multiple instances of the proxy running, as it will allow you to ban the user from accessing the application on all instances.
 
+### Admin Dashboard
+
+The admin dashboard provides a real-time, web-based interface for monitoring proxy performance and health. Access it at `/admin` or `/admin/dashboard` on the main proxy port (default: `:8080/admin`).
+
+**Features:**
+- **Real-time metrics**: Auto-refreshes every 5 seconds
+- **System health**: Backend GraphQL and Redis connectivity status
+- **Circuit breaker**: Current state, configuration, and statistics
+- **Request coalescing**: Deduplication rate and backend savings
+- **Retry budget**: Available tokens and denial rate
+- **WebSocket**: Active connections and message statistics
+- **Connection pool**: Active connections and health status
+- **Cache statistics**: Hit/miss rates and memory usage
+
+**Configuration:**
+```bash
+# Enable admin dashboard (default: true)
+GMP_ADMIN_DASHBOARD_ENABLE=true
+```
+
+**Security Considerations:**
+- The dashboard is accessible on the main proxy port
+- For production, consider:
+  - Using Kubernetes NetworkPolicies to restrict access
+  - Adding authentication via ingress/service mesh
+  - Disabling the dashboard in production if not needed
+  - Using port-forwarding for administrative access
+
+**Dashboard Sections:**
+
+1. **System Health**
+   - Overall health status (healthy/unhealthy)
+   - Backend GraphQL connectivity
+   - Redis connectivity (if enabled)
+   - Response times for health checks
+
+2. **Key Metrics**
+   - Request coalescing rate (% of backend savings)
+   - Retry budget tokens available
+   - Active WebSocket connections
+   - Active connection pool connections
+
+3. **Circuit Breaker**
+   - Current state (closed/half-open/open)
+   - Configuration (max failures, timeout, etc.)
+   - Recent statistics
+
+4. **Detailed Statistics**
+   - Request coalescing: Total, primary, and coalesced requests with backend savings percentage
+   - Retry budget: Current tokens, max tokens, total attempts, denied retries, and denial rate
+   - Control actions: Reset statistics, clear cache
+
+**API Endpoints:**
+The dashboard fetches data from these API endpoints:
+- `GET /admin/api/health` - System health status
+- `GET /admin/api/circuit-breaker` - Circuit breaker status
+- `GET /admin/api/coalescing` - Request coalescing statistics
+- `GET /admin/api/retry-budget` - Retry budget statistics
+- `GET /admin/api/websocket` - WebSocket connection statistics
+- `GET /admin/api/connections` - Connection pool statistics
+- `POST /admin/api/coalescing/reset` - Reset coalescing stats
+- `POST /admin/api/retry-budget/reset` - Reset retry budget stats
