Simulating event interdependencies in service meshes extended by event-driven applications

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and computer-readable storage media for generating a call graph representative of a service mesh including software systems and extension applications, the software systems including a first software system that is configured to publish a first event and a second software system configured to receive first API calls, the extension applications including a first extension application configured to consume the first event and, in response to the first event, transmit first API calls, determining a first cardinality representative of a ratio of first events to first API-calls, receiving monitoring data representative of frequencies of the first event occurring during production use of the first software system, simulating production use of the service mesh by generating a set of frequencies of first API calls based on the call graph, the monitoring data, and the first cardinality, and displaying simulation results including the set of frequencies of the first API calls.
