Containerized microservices are widely adopted for latency-sensitive and compute-intensive applications, with Kubernetes (K8s) as the dominant orchestration platform. However, automating the deployment and management of multi-service…
Testing microservice systems involves a large amount of planning and problem-solving. The difficulty of testing microservice systems increases as the size and structure of such systems become more complex. To help the microservice community…
The microservice software architecture is more scalable and efficient than its monolithic predecessor. Despite its increasing adoption, microservices might expose security concerns and issues that are distinct from those associated with…
The move towards the microservice based architecture is well underway. In this architectural style, small and loosely coupled modules are developed, deployed, and scaled independently to compose cloud-native applications. However, for…
Cloud services have recently started undergoing a major shift from monolithic applications, to graphs of hundreds of loosely-coupled microservices. Microservices fundamentally change a lot of assumptions current cloud systems are designed…
Kubernetes is a free, open-source container orchestration system for deploying and managing Docker containers that host microservices. Kubernetes cluster logs help in determining the reason for the failure. However, as systems become more…
Microservices architecture has started a new trend for application development for a number of reasons: (1) to reduce complexity by using tiny services; (2) to scale, remove and deploy parts of the system easily; (3) to improve flexibility…
As an application usage grows, its owner scales up vertically by replacing old machines with more powerful ones. This methodology is expensive and leads to resource waste. In response to the business needs, internet giants have developed…
Kubernetes (K8s) serves as a mature orchestration system for the seamless deployment and management of containerized applications spanning across cloud and edge environments. Since high-performance connectivity and minimal resource…
Microservice architecture is widely adopted among distributed systems. It follows the modular approach that decomposes large software applications into independent services. Kubernetes has become the standard tool for managing these…
There is an increasing interest in extending traditional cloud-native technologies, such as Kubernetes, outside the data center to build a continuum towards the edge and between. However, traditional resource orchestration algorithms do not…
Kubernetes has emerged as an essential platform for deploying containerised applications across cloud and edge infrastructures. As Kubernetes gains increasing adoption for mission-critical microservices, evaluating system resilience under…
As more and more companies are migrating (or planning to migrate) from on-premise to Cloud, their focus is to find anomalies and deficits as early as possible in the development life cycle. We propose Frisbee, a declarative language and…
Microservices have become the de-facto software architecture for cloud-native applications. A contentious architectural decision in microservices is to compose them using choreography or orchestration. In choreography, every service works…
Modern cloud applications delivering global services are often built on distributed systems with a microservice architecture. In such systems, end-to-end user requests traverse multiple different services and machines, exhibiting intricate…
