OmiLab Integrated Virtual Environment

 Olive is a Microservice Framework made available by OMiLAB. 

The main idea behind is that the functionality of the system is composed by different (web-)services, running in their own processes and communicating with each other using standard network protocols. This approach brings the advantage of absolute technology independence. The only requirement for services is that they can communicate in HTTP using standardized JSON messages (OMiLAB Generic Interface).

More informations about the concepts behind the Olive Framework can be found in the Springer book: "OMiLAB: An Open Collaborative Environment for Modeling Method Engineering".
