“…[10,1,25]), its influence on the design of the deployment in a service mesh and its topology are studied only rarely. For instance, Zheng et al [27] study the SLA-aware deployment of microservices. Selimi et al [21] study the service placement in a microservice architecture.…”

Microservices are becoming the de-facto standard way for software development in the cloud and in service-oriented computing. Service meshes have been introduced as a dedicated infrastructure for managing a network of containerized microservices, in order to cope with the complexity, manageability, and interoperability challenges in especially large-scale microservice architectures. Unfortunately so far no dedicated architecture guidance for designing microservices and choosing among technology options in a service mesh exist. As a result, there is a substantial uncertainty in designing and using microservices in a service mesh environment today. To alleviate this problem, we have performed a model-based qualitative in-depth study of existing practices in this field in which we have systematically and in-depth studied 40 reports of established practices from practitioners. In our study we modeled our findings in a rigorously specified reusable architectural decision model, in which we identified 14 architectural design decisions with 47 decision outcomes and 77 decision drivers in total. We estimated the uncertainty in the resulting design space with and without use of our model, and found that a substantial uncertainty reduction can be potentially achieved by applying our model.

“…With the advancement of Microservice-architecture enabled cloud applications [19,21,22,18,7], there are studies to investigate the security vulnerabilites with the new paradigm. In [16,14], new efficient authentication and contract signing protocols are investigate with low-resource usuage and communication latency.…”

Cloud computing is the internet based provisioning of the computing resources, software, and information on demand. Cloud Computing is referred to as one of most recent emerging paradigms of computing utilities. Since Cloud computing is the dominant infrastructure of the shared services over the internet, it is important to be aware of the security risk and the challenges associated with this emerging computing paradigm. This survey provides a brief introduction to the cloud computing, its major characteristics, and service models. It also explores cloud security threats, lists a few security solutions , and proposes a promsing research direction to deal with the evolving security challenges in Cloud computing.

“…Microservice is an approach towards software development, in which an application is designed and constructed leveraging the benefits of modularisation through a set of small and highly cohesive services that coordinate and interact each other using lightweight mechanisms [1], [2]. This approach enables fast development of applications and has the potentials to localise bugs, limits their propagation within the system, and facilitates their automated detection and repair [3]- [6]. However, bug localisation/debugging are complex due to efforts required to trace the failed requests among a number of log files spread on different containers [7]- [9].…”

Microservice is an approach to software development, in which an application is designed and constructed to maximise the benefits of modularisation. This approach improves the testing of applications, where modularization can limit the propagation of bugs and facilitates their detection. Though the microservices paradigm has the potentials to ease the automation of bugs detection and fixing, the process is still less understood by the microservices community. To bridge this gap and accelerate such an understanding, we extracted posts from Stack Overflow to identify the most commonly discussed issues in microservice development and testing and we categorised the concerns. Our results indicate that (i) missing parameters and operations are the most common concerns in service routing; (ii) wrong versions of libraries, annotations, protocols, and clusters appear as the main concerns on service discovery; (iii) the absence of authorisation operation and web tokens exposed for a long time are the main concerns related to service authentication and authorisation; and (iv) the absence of configuration parameters for cache and inadequate patterns for long-running transactions emerge as trending concerns in service invocation. We analyse our findings and provide suggestions for future research.
