Unified management, automation and interoperability of business and device processes utilizing components of a metadata-driven computing system on any device and/or across difference devices. In an embodiment, a I/O processor on a device receives an input dataset, wherein the input dataset may be a messages dataset received from a message broker. The I/O processor accesses one or more instructions datasets nested within a state dataset to process each row in the input dataset. Processing of the input dataset by the I/O processor updates the state of the state dataset and may output one or more datasets, wherein an output dataset may be a messages dataset sent to a message broker to send to a computing system for processing. A messages dataset may comprise one or more messages, wherein a message may comprise one or more events, queries, or query results for processing by a computing system.
