Service graphs for canary deployment systems and methods
Described embodiments provide systems and methods for generating service graphs for canary deployment of microservices is provided. A call chain can include a canary version of a microservice and one or more production versions of microservices. The canary version microservice can receive a request and include into header portion of the request an identifier indicating the microservice is the canary version of the microservice. The microservice can provide, to the one or more subsequent microservices of the call chain, the request with the identifier. The one or more subsequent microservices can include one or more tags in the request to identify that the one or more subsequent microservices are executing the production versions while retaining the identifier with the request. A service graph can be generated identifying transactions processed by the canary version microservice and the production versions of the one or more subsequent microservices.
