Disclosed embodiments are directed at systems, methods, and architecture for configuring event hooks in a microservice architecture-based system. The control plane links a plurality of APIs for a microservice architecture application. Each API includes a data plane proxy that serves traffic for the API from the control plane. The control plane receives an event hook including an event, a source, and a handler. The control plane configures a component of the microservice-architecture-based system to run the handler when the event occurs at the source. When the event occurred at the source, the component runs the handler.
