Using service graphs to compare performance of a plurality of versions of a microservice
Described embodiments provide systems and methods for using service graphs to compare performance of a plurality of versions of a microservice. A device may establish metrics from execution of a plurality of versions of a microservice of a service. The plurality of versions of the microservice are deployed concurrently for a portion of execution of the service. The device generates service graphs for each version of the plurality of versions of the microservice. The service graphs include metrics from monitoring execution of a respective version of the microservice. The device identifies differences in metrics between the service graphs for different versions of the microservice. The device requests a change in network traffic of the service between respective versions of the microservice based at least on the one or more differences.
1. A method of using service graphs to compare performance of a plurality of versions of a microservice, the method comprising:
(a) identifying, by one or more devices, metrics for a plurality of versions of a microservice of a service, the plurality of versions being executable concurrently for at least a portion of execution of the service, each of the plurality of versions receiving a respective portion of network traffic of the service;
(b) generating, by the one or more devices, a service graph for each version of the plurality of versions of the microservice, each of the service graphs comprising metrics from execution of a respective version of the microservice;
(c) identifying, by the one or more devices, one or more differences in metrics between the service graphs for different versions of the microservice; and
(d) requesting a change in the respective portion of network traffic of the service between respective versions of the microservice based at least on the one or more differences.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of versions of the microservice are deployed via a canary deployment.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein (a) further comprises distributing a first percentage of network traffic to a first version of the microservice and a second percentage of network traffic to a second version of the microservice.
4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising increasing over time the first percentage of network traffic distributed to the first version of the microservice while decreasing the second percentage of the network traffic distributed to the second version of the microservice.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising generating, by the one or more devices, the service graphs to comprise an arc between a plurality of microservices of the service, the arc identifying one or more metrics.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the arc identifies traffic volume between at least two microservices of the plurality of microservices.
7. The method of claim 5 , wherein the arc identifies latency between at least two microservices of the plurality of microservices.
8. The method of claim 5 , wherein the arc identifies an error rate between at least two microservices of the plurality of microservices.
9. The method of claim 5 , wherein the arc is connected between a first node representing a state of the microservice and a second node representing a state of a second microservice.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein (e) further comprises requesting to switch at least a portion of network traffic from one version of the microservice to another version of the microservice based on the one or more differences.
11. A system of using service graphs to compare performance of a plurality of versions of a microservice, the system comprising:
one or more devices comprising one or more processors coupled to memory and configured to identify metrics for a plurality of versions of a microservice of a service, the plurality of versions being executable concurrently for at least a portion of execution of the service, each of the plurality of versions receiving a respective portion of network traffic of the service;
wherein the one or more devices are configured to generate service graph for each version of the plurality of versions of the microservice, each of the service graphs comprising metrics from execution of a respective version of the microservice;
wherein the one or more devices are configured to identify one or more differences in metrics between the service graphs; and
wherein the one or more devices are configured to request a change in the respective portion of network traffic of the service between respective versions of the microservice based at least on the one or more differences.
12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the plurality of versions of the microservice are deployed via a canary deployment.
13. The system of claim 11 , wherein a first percentage of network traffic is distributed to a first version of the microservice and a second percentage of network traffic to a second version of the microservice.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein over time the first percentage of network traffic distributed to the first version of the microservice is increased while the second percentage of the network traffic distributed to the second version of the microservice is decreased.
15. The system of claim 11 , wherein the one or more devices are configured to generate the service graphs to comprise an arc between a plurality of microservices of the service, the arc identifying one or more metrics.
16. The system of claim 15 , wherein the arc identifies traffic volume between at least two microservices of the plurality of microservices.
17. The system of claim 15 , wherein the arc identifies latency between at least two microservices of the plurality of microservices.
18. The system of claim 15 , wherein the arc identifies an error rate between at least two microservices of the plurality of microservices.
19. The system of claim 15 , wherein the arc is connected between a first node representing a state of the microservice and a second node representing a state of a second microservice.
20. The system of claim 11 , wherein the one or more devices are configured to switch at least a portion of network traffic from one version of the microservice to another version of the microservice based on the one or more differences.
