Job description
Thesis work: Monitoring, tracking and visualization of Microservices to evaluate trade-offs on service granularity.

Are you a master student looking for thesis work with start spring 2023? Are you interested in the Microservice architecture? Then AstraZeneca might be the one for you!

Thesis type: 30/60 credits
Project start: January 2023
Student location: On Site, Gothenburg Sweden with flexibility of working remote few days per week

AstraZeneca is investing heavily in our Augmented Drug Design-Make-Test and Analyse platforms as we seek to deliver better, differentiated Candidate Drugs into trials, faster, for greater patient benefit. We are also involving firming up our existing toolsets and building the applications that will enable us to maximise the value of our new technologies in bringing small molecule and other therapeutic modalities.

In Early Science, we have highly skilled scientists generating ideas and performing experiments in the support of complex drug discovery projects. Our environment is driven by scientific and technical innovation with a high degree of diversity in workflows, data, vendor solutions and in-house builds.

Responsibilities
Microservices-based architectures (MSAs) are gaining popularity as a way to manage the complexity of large-scale systems. As in every type of software architecture the goal with microservices is to provide balance between different concerns, limitations, quality constraint. In addition, a re-occurring question in the area of MSAs in both literature and practice, is that of what the appropriate level of granularity of services is, in order to achieve structural, economic and other benefits.

Therefore, defining a model that balances trade-offs on quality attributes and estimates their impact is complex and calls for in-depth investigation. In addition, literature is lacking studies that define such a model with close collaboration in industry. Furthermore, we investigate how automated service discovery and tracing data to extract metrics of services can help in defining such a model.

To this end, this thesis project intends to investigate in detail the aforementioned aspects. Empirical methods will be used to understand and potentially evaluate trade-offs that exist and can help practitioners optimize the granularity of their services. In addition, an array of techniques can be used to reach such an understanding or evaluation, including visualization of service dependency graphs, systematic comparisons of different technologies, metrics for describing trade-offs and/or machine learning models for predicting the impact of trade-offs.

Qualifications
Essential Requirements
Currently enrolled as a master student within a software engineering, IT or other relevant field
Experience in asynchronous messaging and microservice architecture or passed related course
Experienced in Java or Python programming language
Understanding and experience in Database (Aurora, Elasticsearch or similar)
A strong interest in pharmaceuticals or the pharmaceutical industry
Written and oral communication skills in English
Ability to work collaboratively and solve problems in the absence of complete information

Desirable Requirements
Understanding in a container and serverless architecture (Docker, Kubernetes etc.)
Understanding DevOps, Continuous Integration, and Continuous Delivery (Jenkins, Argo etc.)
Knowledge of AWS services
