Initial Implementation of Network and Service Management

The Service Management component in DigitalPy is a core function designed to manage the lifecycle and operations of various services within the framework. It provides abstract capabilities for installing, deinstalling, discovering, starting, and stopping services, aligning with the principles set in the Network component for network type and communication protocols.

Lifecycle Management

Installation and Deinstallation

Allows for the installation and removal of services within the DigitalPy environment.

Start/Stop Mechanisms

Provides the ability to start and stop services dynamically, ensuring flexibility and responsiveness in resource management.

Service Isolation and Association

• Ensures each service runs in a thread and is isolated from others.
• Associates each service with a specific port and network type, as defined in the Network component.
• Supports various data formats and protocols such as XML, JSON, Protobuf, etc.

Integration with ZManager

Implements a Subscriber pattern of the ZManager, allowing services to subscribe to specific topics published by the Integration Manager.

Message Handling

Implements a push pattern to forward received messages to the Subject (Ventilator).

Interoperability and Standardization

• Ensures compatibility with different network types and communication protocols, as defined in the Network component.
• Aligns with standardized practices for service management, ensuring a consistent and efficient operational environment.
