Abstract
An apparatus in one example comprises: a first manager component responsible for one or more first software components within one or more first executables of a distributed software application; and a second manager component responsible for one or more second software components within one or more second executables of the distributed software application. The first and second manager components communicate to initialize and/or shut down the one or more first software components and the one or more second software components in an ordered sequence based on one or more dependency relationships among two or more of: the one or more first software components; and/or the one or more second software components.
