Project deliverable:
- A research report covering 2-3 research questions
- A working prototype
- Presentation slides
Research Problems:
- Approach the faculty advisor
- Project selection should be mutually agreed
| Item | Research Problem | Research Questions | Research Method |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Microservices Architecture in Banking - In recent years, there is much written about microservices architecture. Even so, there is very little written about how microservices are used in the banking industry. I study is needed to understand microservices implementation in banking. Faculty Advisor: Alan Megargel |
Research Question 1: How do banks decide on the boundary context and granularity of microservices? Research Question 2: What kind of tool sets do banks use for building, testing, and deploying microservices? |
Research Method: Data collection through surveys and interviews of bank staff, and existing case studies. Analysis of qualitative and quantitative data collected. Results and Conclusions. Integrated Report: Write up an integrated report covering all 3 research questions. |
| 2 | Data Replication Across Microservice Instances - In a microservices architecture, as the demand (# of invocations) for a microservice increases, management tools elastically create replicate instances of the microservice. A study is needed to understand mechanisms for replicating the data underlying multiple instances of a microservice. Faculty Advisor: Alan Megargel |
Research Question 1: Can an in-memory-data-grid be used instead of a relational database, underlying replicated instances of a microservice? What is the feasibility of each, in a banking context? Research Question 2: What are the performance characteristics (eg; response time, replication time) of an in-memory-data-grid as compare to a relational database, as invoked across microservice instances? |
