Systems and techniques that facilitate automated recommendation of microservice decomposition strategies for monolithic applications are provided. In various embodiments, a community detection component can detect a disjoint code cluster in a monolithic application based on a code property graph characterizing the monolithic application. In various aspects, the code property graph can be based on a temporal code evolution of the monolithic application. In various embodiments, a topic modeling component can identify a functional purpose of the disjoint code cluster based on a business document corpus corresponding to the monolithic application. In various embodiments, a microservices component can recommend a microservice to replace the disjoint code cluster based on the functional purpose.

An aspect of the invention includes a method for receiving, using a processor, a request to generate a migration plan for migrating an application from a source environment to a target environment. The request includes configuration parameters of the application. A set of possible actions that can be performed to migrate the application from the source environment to a target environment are identified, using the processor, based at least in part on the configuration parameters of the application. The migration plan is generated, using the processor, based at least in part on the request and the identified set of possible actions. The migration plan specifies a subset of the set of possible actions. The generating of the migration plan includes executing an artificial intelligence (AI) engine to identify patterns in the identified set of possible actions. The migration plan is output.
