Sažetak
Developing robust monolith systems has achieved its limitations, since the implementation of changes in today’s large, complex, and fast evolving systems would be too slow and inefficient. As a response to these problems, microservice architecture emerged, and quickly became a widely used solution. Such modular architecture is appropriate for distributed environment of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions. In this paper we present a solution for service management on Machine-to-Machine (M2M) devices within IoT system by using collaborative microservices. Collaboration of distributed modules highly reminds of multi- agent systems where autonomous agents also cooperate to provide services to the end-user. Because of these similarities we consider microservices as modern agents that could improve systems in distributed environments, such as IoT.
