Claim 0:
1. A method comprising:
monitoring, by an application control plane, a plurality of packets being routed through a plurality of services of a microservice architecture application, each of the plurality of services being an application program interface (API) performing a piecemeal function of an overall application function, each service including a data plane proxy, wherein the data plane proxy reports traffic of a corresponding service to the application control plane;
measuring, based on the monitoring, a latency associated with the plurality of packets between a first service and a second service; and
in response to the latency exceeding a threshold,
identifying a bottleneck between the first service and the second service, and
diverting the plurality of packets to a third service with a functionality similar to the second service.
