Assisting a user in developing a software program. A program code of the software program being under development is monitored to identify each code portion of the program code matching a matched one of a plurality of code patterns. A search request is submitted for searching, among a plurality of available services provided by corresponding service providers for the code patterns, each eligible service for the matched code pattern. An indication of at least one eligible service being found is received when a result of the search is positive, prompting the user to select a replacement service among the at least one eligible service in response to the positive result of the search. The code portion is replaced with an invocation of the replacement service on the corresponding service provider.

Collaborative development of software programs based on service invocations
