Abstract
A microservice-based data processing apparatus, including: a type register, storing a list of types, a type being a semantic concept expression; and microservices each comprising an annotation of an input type and output types from the list; processing logic transforming input data expressed by the input type into output data expressed by the output types; and a messaging mechanism for inputting data, via a message, to a microservice, the mechanism defining a message format for structuring the messages. The format includes a first field specifying the data being input; and a second field specifying a type, from the list of types, semantically expressing the concept instantiated by the data. Each microservice includes a controller to receive a message from the mechanism having the format, and to respond by executing the logic when the type specified by the second field matches the input type of the microservice.
