We're building Cortex (https://www.getcortexapp.com/) to solve this problem :) We help you track all your microservices and integrate with all your 3rd party tooling to build a single pane of glass for your architecture. Happy to give you a demo if you're interested!
We’re the co-founders of Cortex. Cortex provides engineering teams with growing architectures an easy way to explore what services exist, understand how they depend on each other, and unlock additional insights through integrations with tools such as Slack and Pagerduty.
To prevent knowledge from going stale, Cortex enables developers to define information about their services alongside the code in a standard OpenAPI file. Integrations can be built on top of Cortex’s data, enabling functionality such as a Slackbot that can list your service’s runbooks, automated alerts when a service your team depends deprecates an API, or a real time overview of your Pagerduty on-call rotation for a service.
Cortex makes an immediate impact for an engineering org:
1. It's easy to lose track of which teams use your service. Cortex helps prevent outages by automatically notifying all of the service's consumers (via Slack & email) when an API changes.
2. Architecture diagrams are never up to date. By defining dependencies next to your code, Cortex makes it easier to maintain your service dependency graph - speeding up new-dev onboarding and operational triage.
3. Documentation and knowledge is scattered across people and tools. Cortex's Slackbot integration allows anyone to quickly find information without digging through code and talking to stakeholders.
4. Integrating Cortex is simple - curl an OpenAPI file to Cortex as part of your build process and the graph is automatically updated.
Cortex is simple to set up, low overhead, and makes documentation useful in day-to-day operations - instantly improving engineering process. Let us know if you have any questions, and we’d love to hear from you!
