Boundary Node Roadmap

So there will be gateways run on Dfinity infrastructure and community members will be free to host their own gateways, either specifically for their own canisters or as a general gateway that can serve any canister.

So, I think something like what we proposed in:

Proposal: Enable canisters to pay in ICP for external services

Objective Enable canisters to pay in ICP for computing services outside the Internet Computer. Background After participating in the ICP.Lab Gaming & Metaverse, @ilbert and I realized that many developers in the IC ecosystem still rely on AWS - or similar services - for some parts of their dapps. This is due to the IC being not yet mature enough to serve all their needs. Current services outside of the IC include the HTTP Gateway and WebSocket Gateway - and any other networking protocol gateway…

would help in making the community able to spin up new gateways and pay for them directly from their canisters.
