Script
- The concept of microservice architecture or, simply, microservices, looks like similar to the service-oriented architecture (SOA) one. However, there are many differences, from which just two are mentioned here:
- First of all, the scopes vary. Microservices can be useful to design one software application. Vice versa, SOA is used to organize all the end-user applications of CNM Cloud.
- Secondly, microservices lack the middleware layer that unifies all the software systems. They rely on lightweight unorganized communication messages instead.
- The CNM Cyber Team adopts commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software solutions as they are. Some of them, like Jitsi, may deploy microservices.
- CNM Cabin and WorldOpp Middleware are the only custom-written software solutions of CNM Cloud. Today, they use the layered architecture, which is also known as monolith. Nevertheless, the Team plans to re-build these solutions adopting microservices.
