Lets say Application sends a request to Kong. And kong has to talk to Service-1, get response from it, extract one information say session id and then attach this to header and pass it to another service Service-2. Finally send back the response of Service-2 to the application.  
Any idea how to do this using builtin plugins. If not then how.

To orchestrate, you need to write a custom plugin for this scenario.
