Abstract
A method and system for providing an integrated application that includes software modules coupled to a message bus. The software modules include applications of different degrees of complexity and different number of components, such as management applications, service applications, and other similar applications. A computer system receives a first input that selects a user interface (UI) to access the integrated application. The selected UI can be a specific UI associated with a software module, or an orchestrator UI that unifies individual styles of the specific UIs. The computer system receives, via the selected UI, a second input to access a destination module among the software modules. If the selected UI is the orchestrator UI, the second input is forwarded to the destination module via the message bus. If the selected UI is a specific UI, the second input is sent to the destination module via the selected specific UI.
