Abstract

A system for managing systems with interrelated microservices with self-assembling and self-configuring microservices includes a plurality of host resource services microservices, a plurality of directory services microservices and a plurality of tenant microservices. Each of the microservices is provided with an API with a standard way to identify the API and its components, which together identify the functionality of the API in a common way. The host resources service microservice are started up in a host. A determination is made whether there is a directory service microservice running in the host and, if there is none, then spinning up a directory service microservice. A plurality of tenant microservices are installed and a determination is made whether all tenant microservices are running, If not, then copies of the tenant microservices that are not running are spun up.
