Abstract: A method, computer system, and computer program product for migrating a service (e.g. microservice) from using a first application programming interface version to using a second (e.g. newer or updated) application programming interface version. The method may include determining a difference between specifications of the first and second versions of the application programming interface. Historical usage of the first version of the application programming interface by the service may then be analyzed with respect to the difference so as to determine if the service meets the specification of the second version of the application programming interface. Responsive to determining the service meets the specification of the second version of the application programming interface difference, the service may be migrated from using the first version of the application programming interface to using the second version of the application programming interface.

Abstract: Comparing the performance of multiple versions or branches/paths of an application (e.g., a web service or application) may be conducted within a suitable computing environment. Such an environment may be virtual in nature, cloud-based, or server-based, and is hosted with tools for simultaneously (or nearly simultaneously) executing multiple containers or other code collections with the same or similar operating conditions (e.g., network congestion, resource contention, memory management schemes). By arranging the performance test of different application versions in different sequences executed in parallel in separate containers, fair comparisons of the tested applications will be obtained. Testing sequences may be executed multiple times, and metrics are collected during each execution. Afterward, the results for each metric for each code version are aggregated and displayed to indicate their relative performance quantitatively and/or qualitatively.

Abstract: Techniques for receiving operational preferences for operating network devices, and determining software updates for the network devices based on the operational preferences. A recommendation system may determine a group of network devices in a device network based on the network devices in the group performing a common functional role or have common attributes. The recommendation engine may further receive the operational preferences for the group of network devices from a user associated with the device network. These operational preferences may be continuously, or periodically, evaluated against actual operating conditions of the group of network devices to determine whether a risk metric associated with the actual operation conditions violates an operational preference. In some instances, the recommendation system may provide the user with access to a recommendation to run updated software that is more optimized for the network device and that satisfies the operational preferences of the user.
