Abstract

Technology evolution may be used by countries’ administrations in order to offer better and more effective citizen services. In this paper, we present our vision for e-states, a notion beyond the urban boundaries of smart cities, by introducing a concept for an event-centric, e-governance system, based on the microservices architecture. We discuss the benefits of such an approach and show how such services may be designed for the e-states we envision.
