The concept of the Kernel.
In an operating system, it is my understanding, the kernel provides a small but critical set of services to the software running on top of it. In most systems this would be stuff like memory management,
When I am designing a line of business application this would include persistence (i.e. save this to disk/database/etc), communication (with humans, with other machines), and I can only imagine a whole host of other ones for each different app. Something to note is that these systems are not ‘business logic’ but merely allow the business logic to get outside the system. The business processes use these to get the job done.
Not a big idea, or a new one. Just rethinking previous ideas.
