ARC MSB Component Description – Guilin (R7) Release
MSB (Micro Service Bus):
1 High Level Component Definition and Architectural Relationships
The Microservice Bus function provides service registration, discovery and communication services for microservices as well as a gateway for internal & External communication for the services:
Register communication services
Discover communication services
Manage communication between microservices
OOM connects to MSB to register and update service information when it instantiates service endpoints.
MSB and DMaaP are complementary. MSB provides the restful API service registration/discovery/routing/API gateway, which addresses the sync/rpc communication pattern in microservice architecture, in contrast, DMaaP provides messages/file transfer, which mainly focused on the async communication pattern in microservices architecture.
2. API definitions
MSB provides the following interfaces: (Question, is this one interface with 3 LCMs or one interface with these capabilities)
