Core Systems & Services
The Eclipse Arrowhead framework provides support for building system of systems (SoS) based using microservices and microsystems. The framework technology is fundamentally a highly distributed approach and primarily targets the creation of solutions from the edge to the cloud.
An Eclipse Arrowhead SoS consists of a small set of mandatory core systems and additional core systems and application specific microsystems forming the resources to address the specified automation or digitalisation solution.
The mandatory core systems provides the fundamental support for a working service oriented architecture:
- Look-up
- Late binding
- Loosely coupled
Other core systems provides support for:
- Extended security,
- Interoperability,
- Intercloud service exchange
- SoS support,
- Execution support
- Supply chain/product life cycle
- Management tools
- Engineering Tools
The Eclipse Arrowhead architecture uses the concept of local clouds to enable hard real time capabilities where needed.
