Infrastructure
In GRA terms, “execution context”
Network, hardware, and software that
supports service interaction
Conformant execution context provides:
 A container environment for connectors
(consumer or initiator of interaction)
 A container environment for adapters
(provider or recipient of interaction)
 A container environment for intermediaries
 Security, availability, performance, and
reliability
