Abstract

In one aspect, a method to use a middleware component includes receiving a request from an application to interact with a platform using a service and using an abstract factory pattern corresponding to the service. The abstract factory pattern is associated with a first factory pattern stored in the middleware component. The method also includes determining if the first factory pattern is associated with the platform and invoking the service with the platform using the first factory pattern if the first factory pattern is associated with the platform.
