A micro services quality measurement model for improving the efficiency and quality of DevOps

Abstract

DevOps is an important practice environment and future operation trend for software development and maintenance. DevOps has important features that are continuous integration, continuous delivery, automation and high efficiency to increase enterprise market competition. Micro services architecture is a critical item for keeping the advantages of DevOps environment. In addition, micro services have many advantages than monolithic applications in software development and maintenance. However, many challenges of micro services architecture need to be overcome. Quantified quality characteristics can identify and assist to improve the defects of micro services that affect the efficiency and quality of DevOps operation. In this paper, the authors propose the Micro Services Quality Measurement (MSQM) Model to evaluate and identify work process defects of micro services. Based on MSQM model, the quality improvement procedure is designed for improving micro services work process defects and increasing the overall DevOps operation efficiency and application quality.
