- This paper describes a novel approach for defining microservice-based cloud-native application topologies and their associated quality of service parameters using standard TOSCA format. The paper also presents a reference architecture and implementation how such descriptions can be processed and acted on. The significance of the paper is demonstrated by its impact and industry utilisation. German company CloudSME (https://cloudsme.eu/) is marketing and selling services based on the resulting product (called MiCADO), and further companies reported economic impact on this basis (see https://project-cola.eu/experiments/). The concept is also utilised by large European funded research projects, for example ASCLEPIOS (https://www.asclepios-project.eu/) and DIGITbrain (https://digitbrain.eu/).
