Analytics Insights and Scaling Policies for Microservices CWA 17494:2020

Scope

This CEN Workshop Agreement gives guidelines for platform-agnostic elasticity management of elastic-by-design microservices. Platform-agnostic implies that the mechanism/orchestration entity which will perform the actual scale-in/out process is outside of the scope of this document. Instead, the definition of the actual elasticity events and the relationship of this definition with the underlying monitoring mechanisms will be formally described. The specification is using the Backus Naur form [1].
This document is applicable to independent software vendors (also known as ISVs) or developers of microservice orchestration platforms.
