Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that facilitates using unspecialized software micro-containers to build complex dynamic business processes. During operation, the system receives a command to execute a business logic at a computer system. In response to the command, the system initializes an unspecialized software micro-container from a pool of unspecialized software micro-containers. Next, the system retrieves the business logic from a business logic repository. The system then loads the business logic into the unspecialized software micro-container. Finally, the system executes the business logic in the unspecialized software micro-container. Note that the requestor publishes the desired business process in the repository, and the system, represented by the unspecialized containers, self-organizes to execute the job without additional management.
