Abstract

This paper introduces PREvant (preview servant), a software tool which provides a simple RESTful API for deploying and composing containerized microservices as reviewable applications. PREvant’s API serves as a connector between continuous delivery pipelines of microservices and the infrastructure that hosts the applications. Based on the REST API and a web interface developers and domain experts at aixigo AG developed quality assurance workflows that help to increase and maintain high microservice quality.
