Abstract
A method, computer system, and computer program product for migrating a service (e.g. microservice) from using a first application programming interface version to using a second (e.g. newer or updated) application programming interface version. The method may include determining a difference between specifications of the first and second versions of the application programming interface. Historical usage of the first version of the application programming interface by the service may then be analyzed with respect to the difference so as to determine if the service meets the specification of the second version of the application programming interface. Responsive to determining the service meets the specification of the second version of the application programming interface difference, the service may be migrated from using the first version of the application programming interface to using the second version of the application programming interface.
