The development of cloud computing delivery models inspires the emergence of cloud-native computing. Cloud-native computing, as the most influential development principle for web applications, has already attracted increasingly more attention in both industry and academia. Despite the momentum in the cloud-native industrial community, a clear research roadmap on this topic is still missing. As a contribution to this knowledge, this article surveys key issues during the life cycle of cloud-native applications, from the perspective of services. Specifically, we elaborate on the research domains by decoupling the life cycle of cloud-native applications into four states: building, orchestration, operation, and maintenance. We also discuss the fundamental necessities and summarize the key performance metrics that play critical roles during the development and management of cloud-native applications. We highlight the key implications and limitations of existing works in each state. The challenges, future directions, and research opportunities are also discussed.

云原生计算：服务视角的调查


云计算交付模式的发展激发了云原生计算的出现。云原生计算作为最有影响力的Web应用开发原则，已经越来越受到工业界和学术界的关注。尽管云原生工业界发展势头强劲，但仍然缺乏关于该主题的明确研究路线图。作为对这方面知识的贡献，本文从服务的角度探讨了云原生应用生命周期中的关键问题。具体来说，我们通过将云原生应用程序的生命周期解耦为四个状态来详细阐述研究领域：构建、编排、运维和维护。我们还讨论了基本必要性，并总结了在云原生应用程序的开发和管理过程中发挥关键作用的关键性能指标。我们强调每个州现有工作的主要影响和局限性。还讨论了挑战、未来方向和研究机会。
