Abstract: One example method includes receiving, from a microservice, a service request that identifies a service needed by the microservice, and an API of an endpoint that provides the service, evaluating the service request to determine whether the service request conforms to a policy, when the service request has been determined to conform with the policy, evaluating the endpoint to determine if endpoint performance meets established guidelines, and when it is determined that the endpoint performance does not meet the established guidelines, identifying an alternative endpoint that meets the established guidelines and that provides the requested service. Next, the method includes transforming the API of the service identified in the service request to an alternative API of the service provided by the alternative endpoint, and sending the service request and the alternative API to the alternative endpoint.
