Microservices version state visualization

A system comprising:

• a processor device;
• a memory element;
• and
• an application manager stored in the memory element, the application manager comprising one or more instructions executable by the processor device, the one or more instructions configured to:
• identify a current implementation of a microservices application, wherein the microservices application comprises a plurality of microservice containers, and wherein each microservice container comprises an environment for executing a particular microservice on the processor device;
• determine version state information for the microservices application, wherein the version state information comprises an indication of:
• one or more up-to-date microservice containers from the plurality of microservice containers;
• one or more out-of-date microservice containers from the plurality of microservice containers;
• and
• an extent to which the one or more out-of-date microservice containers are outdated;
• display a graphical representation of the microservices application, wherein the graphical representation of the microservices application comprises:
• a graphical representation of the plurality of microservice containers;
• and
• a plurality of version state visualizations, wherein the plurality of version state visualizations comprises a plurality of graphical indications of:
• the one or more up-to-date microservice containers;
• the one or more out-of-date microservice containers;
• and the extent to which the one or more out-of-date microservice containers are outdated;
• prompt a user regarding whether to update the one or more out-of-date microservice containers;
• and
• update the one or more out-of-date microservice containers based on prompting the user.

A non-transitory computer readable medium having program instructions stored thereon that are executable to cause a computer system to perform operations comprising:

• identifying a current implementation of a microservices application, wherein the microservices application comprises a plurality of microservice containers, and wherein each microservice container comprises an environment for executing a particular microservice on one or more processors;
• determining version state information for the microservices application, wherein the version state information comprises an indication of:
• one or more up-to-date microservice containers from the plurality of microservice containers;
• one or more out-of-date microservice containers from the plurality of microservice containers;
• and
• an extent to which the one or more out-of-date microservice containers are outdated;
• displaying a graphical representation of the microservices application, wherein the graphical representation of the microservices application comprises:
• a graphical representation of the plurality of microservice containers;
• and
• a plurality of version state visualizations, wherein the plurality of version state visualizations comprises a plurality of graphical indications of:
• the one or more up-to-date microservice containers;
• the one or more out-of-date microservice containers;
• and the extent to which the one or more out-of-date microservice containers are outdated;
• prompting a user regarding whether to update the one or more out-of-date microservice containers;
• and
• updating the one or more out-of-date microservice containers based on prompting the user.
