Abstract
An infrastructure management system automatically determines a configuration of infrastructure services for the execution of applications that best satisfies predefined target criteria based on receiving annotated application programming interface (API) schemas associated with the applications. The system extracts information from customized annotations in a received API schema, sets up an API gateway with an existing configuration of infrastructure services, and logs requests received at this existing configuration via the gateway. The system generates a set of alternate configurations based on the extracted information, simulates execution of a set of logged requests to determine a set of valid configurations, and subsequently selects a new configuration that satisfies threshold predefined target criteria. The system may update the existing configuration to the new configuration without interrupting application services.
