Cell router
In a cell-based architecture the whole stack is copied into cells that share nothing. The router is the only shared part, so it must be tiny and extremely reliable; a bad deployment then affects one cell instead of every customer.
In production: AWS cell-based architecture, Slack cells, DoorDash cells, Route 53 Application Recovery Controller
