Abstract
A middleware abstraction layer (MAL) that can include a plurality of middleware application programming interfaces (APIs). Each of the plurality of middleware APIs can be configured to implement a common programming paradigm for a plurality of different service platforms. The MAL can also include a master application programming interface (API). The master API can be configured to provide a plurality of resources for a mission specific application. Each of the plurality of resources is mapped in a registry to an API call to each of the plurality of middleware APIs. The MAL can further include a control engine configured to load an adapter for a selected a middleware API of the plurality of middleware APIs to service a resource request from the mission specific application. The selection can include examining a configuration file to determine an appropriate middleware API to handle the resource request.
