Managing a distributed microservice architecture as a monolithic distribution

Abstract:

Systems and methods for implementing a service broker that is an orchestration layer for transactions in a distributed microservice system include receiving a provisioning request in the distributed microservice system, wherein the provisioning request is redirected to the service broker, and wherein the distributed microservice system includes a plurality of microservices each managing its own data such that there is no central configuration store for the plurality of microservices; and managing the plurality of microservices by the service broker as a monolith in context of the provisioning request to perform detecting, validating, and one of committing and canceling changes in the distributed microservice system due to the provisioning request.
