Architectural Constraints Alignment in AI-assisted, Platform-based Service Development

AI-assisted development tools enable rapid prototyping of services but often lack awareness of architectural constraints, infrastructure dependencies, and organizational standards required in production environments. Consequently, generated artifacts may exhibit brittle behavior and limited deployability. We propose a retrieval-augmented scaffolding approach that combines platform-based code generation with agentic clarification loops to expose and resolve architectural constraint ambiguities. By combining template retrieval with structured interaction, the method embeds production-relevant considerations during service scaffolding. Evaluation indicates improved architectural consistency and deployability compared to general-purpose AI code generation workflows, suggesting that constraint-aware retrieval is essential for aligning AI-assisted service development with production software engineering practices.

Service-Level Energy Modeling and Experimentation for Cloud-Native Microservices

Microservice architectures have become the dominant paradigm for cloud-native systems, offering flexibility and scalability. However, this shift has also led to increased demand for cloud resources, contributing to higher energy consumption and carbon emissions. While existing research has focused on measuring fine-grained energy usage of CPU and memory at the container level, or on system-wide assessments, these approaches often overlook the energy impact of cross-container service interactions, especially those involving network and storage for auxiliary services such as observability and system monitoring. To address this gap, we introduce a service-level energy model that captures the distributed nature of microservice execution across containers. Our model is supported by an experimentation tool that accounts for energy consumption not just in CPU and memory, but also in network and storage components. We validate our approach through extensive experimentation with diverse experiment configurations of auxiliary services for a popular open-source cloud-native microservice application. Results show that omitting network and storage can lead to an underestimation of auxiliary service energy use by up to 63%, highlighting the need for more comprehensive energy assessments in the design of energy-efficient microservice architectures.
