As noted above, the example management agent interface 510 implements a REST API. However, any other approach to implementing the example management agent interface 510 may additionally or alternatively be used. In some examples, the management agent 350 periodically and/or aperiodically polls and/or otherwise requests instructions from the management agent interface 510. The example management agent interface 510 responds to such requests with an indication of an instruction (if any) to be executed by the example management agent 350. However, any other approach to informing the example management agent 350 may additionally or alternatively be used. For example, the example management agent interface 510 may provide an interface for the management agent 350 to subscribe to indications of instructions from the management endpoint 340 such that the management agent interface 510 contacts the management agent 350 to inform the management agent 350 of the instruction for execution. Such an approach may be implemented using a REST subscription interface. However, any other type of subscription interface may additionally or alternatively be used.
