Smart cities are IOT enabled applications which provide services from controlling streetlight according to weather conditions, smart parking vehicles according to free parking slots, up to traffic management according to train arrival time. They also concern access to education, health, cultural and sports services. If all the applications are based on interaction between each other according to the requirement, then it will be great success in achieving robust smart city services. Many services factors such as availability, quality, affordability, and continuity can be increased by enabling communication between the services. This research is focused on communication between different IOT enabled services. Two techniques used here are centralized level interaction and peer level interaction. The task of centralized level interaction is registering all IOT enabled services and sending required information to the respective services in time. Peer level services speak to each other whenever required. This research also analyses advantages and drawbacks of both of these techniques.
