Abstract: A computer implemented method is described for validation of a service. A graph data structure including a catalog layer with a service offering is statically analyzed. The method uses the static analysis to determine that a build exposing the service deviates from a pre-declared whitelist of dependencies. The method rejects insertion of the build into the graph data structure responsive to the determination in accord with a deny-by-default security posture.

A graph data structure is statically analyzed beginning prior to deployment of the service and continues after deployment.

Abstract: A computer implemented method is described for management of development and deployment of a service based architecture. A graph data structure is generated for the development and deployment of the service based architecture. The graph data structure includes multiple layers which include a core layer and a catalog layer. The graph data structure relates an initial tenant and one or more additional tenants or neighboring tenants in the core layer. The management device assigns a catalog data structure to the catalog layer of the graph data structure. The catalog data structure includes addresses for the initial tenant and the one or more additional tenants for respective hosted locations within the service based architecture. A service offering is described as one or more item nodes in the graph data structure. The graph data structure associates the item node to the catalog data structure of the catalog layer and the initial tenant in the core layer.
