Method and apparatus for microservice architecture for locally based applications

1. A method comprising:

obtaining customer journey information pertaining to usage of a software application, wherein the customer journey information is based on journeys, wherein journeys are user paths through different modules of the software application;

selecting a first module of the software application based on the customer journey information;

providing, by a server, a first module of the software application to a client device, wherein the client device is configured to begin execution of the first module prior to receipt of a second module of the software application, the software application being implemented according to a micro-service architecture allowing execution of the software application at the client device with fewer than all modules of the software application loaded, wherein the fewer than all modules of the software application are stored in a local memory prior to being loaded;

selecting the second module of the software application based on the customer journey information; and

providing, by the server, the second module of the software application to the client device, wherein the client device is configured to execute the second module.

2. The method of claim 1 further comprising:

performing machine learning (ML) on the customer journey information, wherein the selecting the first module of the software application is performed in response to the performing the ML.

4. The method of claim 1 further comprising:

dividing the software application into a plurality of modules comprising the first module, the second module, and an additional module, wherein the first module is a start-up module and the second module is a runner module.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the software application is configured to be installed under an operating system of the client device as a locally based application of the client device.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the selecting of the first module and the selecting of the second module are performed according to a module mapping having a topology selected from a group consisting of a pair topology, a star topology, a mesh topology, and a cluster tree topology.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the selecting of the first module is performed based on a first weight assigned to the first module and the selecting of the second module is performed based on a second weight assigned to the second module.

8. An information handling system (IHS) comprising:

a memory; and

a processor configured to receive from a server and to store in the memory a first module of a software application, the first module of the software application selected based on customer journey information pertaining to usage of the software application, wherein the customer journey information is based on journeys, wherein journeys are user paths through different modules of the software application, the processor configured to begin execution of the first module prior to receipt of a second module of the software application, the processor configured to receive from the server and to store in memory the second module, the second module of the software application selected based on the customer journey information, the software application being implemented according to a micro-service architecture allowing execution of the software application at the client device with fewer than all modules of the software application loaded, wherein the fewer than all modules of the software application are stored in the memory prior to being loaded.

9. The IHS of claim 8 , wherein the first module of the software application and the second module of the software application are selected by performing machine learning (ML) on the customer journey information.

10. The IHS of claim 8 , wherein the customer journey information is obtained from a plurality of customers' journeys of customers obtained during use of the software application by the customers.

11. The IHS of claim 8 , wherein the first module is a start-up module and the second module is a runner module.

12. The IHS of claim 8 , wherein the software application is configured to be installed under an operating system of the IHS as a locally based application of the IHS.

13. The IHS of claim 8 , wherein the first module and the second module are selected according to a module mapping having a topology selected from a group consisting of a pair topology, a star topology, a mesh topology, and a cluster tree topology.

14. The IHS of claim 8 , wherein the first module is selected based on a first weight assigned to the first module and the second module is selected based on a second weight assigned to the second module.

15. A method comprising:

receiving, from a server, a first module of a software application at a client device;

storing the first module of the software application in a local memory of the client device;

executing the first module at the client device prior to receipt of a second module of the software application at the client device, the first module of the software application selected based on customer journey information, the customer journey information pertaining to usage of the software application, wherein the customer journey information is based on journeys, wherein journeys are user paths through different modules of the software application, the software application being implemented according to a micro-service architecture allowing execution of the software application at the client device with fewer than all modules of the software application loaded at the client device, wherein the fewer than all modules of the software application are stored in the local memory prior to being loaded;

receiving, from the server, the second module of the software application at the client device; and

executing the second module at the client device, the second module of the software application selected based on the customer journey information.

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the first module of the software application and the second module of the software application are selected by performing machine learning (ML) on the customer journey information.

17. The method of claim 15 , wherein the customer journey information is obtained from a plurality of customers' journeys of customers obtained during use of the software application by the customers.

18. The method of claim 15 , wherein the first module is a start-up module and the second module is a runner module.

19. The method of claim 15 , wherein the software application is configured to be installed under an operating system of the IHS as a locally based application of the IHS.
