Abstract
Filters inject extra logic into the request processing pipeline. They provide a simple and elegant way to implement cross-cutting concerns. This term refers to functionality that is used all over an application and doesn’t fit neatly into any one place, so it would break the separation of concerns pattern. Classic examples of cross-cutting concerns are logging, authorization, and caching.
