Abstract

To determine whether a set of software services underlying an API adhere to architecture guidelines, an architecture guideline validation system analyzes program code as part of a compilation process for the services to generate a data structure that indicates an organization of the services and invocations between the services. The system analyzes the data structure to determine whether any architecture guidelines have been violated. Example architecture guidelines can include limitations on a number of successive invocations and restrictions as to a directionality of invocations (e.g. an invocation by a private, secure service to an exposed, client-facing service). If any violations are identified, the system indicates the violations and may display the violations as compiler errors or warnings.
