Method and system to identify and prioritize re-factoring to improve micro-service identification

Abstract:

A computer system, computer program product, and computer-implemented method to identify one or more re-factoring operations directed at micro-service identification for source code. A genetic algorithm is leveraged to produce an offspring population of re-factoring operations from a parent set. The offspring population is subject to an assessment utilizing one or more objective measures. Responsive to the assessment, one or more identified re-factoring operations are selectively applied to the source code to produce one or more corresponding micro-service candidates.
