Abstract: Abstract The growth of today’s cities and the increased population mobility are providing great challenge to manage vehicles on the roads. This challenge led to the need for new and innovative traffic management, including the mitigation of road congestion, accidents, and air pollution as well as many business oriented demands. Over the last decade, researchers have been focusing their efforts on leveraging the recent advances in Web Services and Multi-Agents to design new road traffic management systems (TMS) for resolving these important challenges in the future transportation. However, these new solutions are still be insufficient and complex to construct TMS systems that are capable of handling the anticipated influx of the population, vehicles and changing transportation scenarios. This paper is pointing to a new and emerging technology that can solve these challenges and develop more flexible TMS systems based on the notion of microservices offered by web frameworks like IFTTT, Zapier, Node-Red and WoTKit.
