System and a method for providing on-demand resiliency services

A system for handling one or more dependency services hosted by one or more dependency servers for an upstream service hosted by an administrative server in a distributed computer architecture, the system interfacing with the dependency servers and the administrative server, the system comprising:

• a memory storing program instructions;
• a processor configured to execute program instructions stored in the memory;
• and a service handling engine in communication with the processor and configured to:
• analyze metric values associated with one or more predetermined service-parameters of the one or more dependency services based on a first set of rules, wherein the first set of rules comprises comparing the metric values with threshold metric values associated with the predetermined service-parameters to determine one or more faltering dependency services;
• enable resiliency services based on faulty metric values associated with the predetermined service-parameters of the one or more faltering dependency services, wherein enabling the resiliency services comprises evaluation of parameters for a circuit breaker of each of the resiliency services and selection of a fallback technique for each of the resiliency services based on the faulty metric values associated with the predetermined service-parameters, wherein evaluating the parameters for the circuit breaker comprises evaluating an approximate time to recover from the faulty metric values associated with the predetermined service-parameters based on a number of queued up requests, incoming requests and a response time from the one or more faltering dependency services;
• determine if the one or more faltering dependency services have recovered, wherein the one or more faltering dependency services are monitored for recovery and a time duration for recovery is determined;
• and
• disable the one or more resiliency services if the one or more faltering dependency services have recovered.

A computer program product comprising:

• a non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer-readable program code stored thereon, the computer-readable program code comprising instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:
• analyze metric values associated with one or more predetermined service-parameters of one or more dependency services based on a first set of rules, wherein the first set of rules comprises comparing the metric values with threshold metric values associated with the predetermined service-parameters to determine one or more faltering dependency services;
• enable resiliency services based on faulty metric values associated with the predetermined service-parameters of the one or more faltering dependency services, wherein enabling the resiliency services comprises evaluation of parameters for a circuit breaker of each of the resiliency services and selection of a fallback technique for each of the resiliency services based on the faulty metric values associated with the predetermined service-parameters, wherein evaluating the parameters for the circuit breaker comprises evaluating an approximate time to recover from the faulty metric values associated with the predetermined service-parameters based on a number of queued up requests, incoming requests and a response time from the one or more faltering dependency services;
• determine if the one or more faltering dependency services have recovered, wherein the one or more faltering dependency services are monitored for a recovery and a time duration for the recovery is determined;
• and
• disable the one or more resiliency services if the one or more faltering dependency services have recovered.
