A system recommends the refactoring of microservices. The system determines a segments similarity score based on comparing first code segments, associated with a first microservice in an application, against second code segments, associated with a second microservice in the application. The system determines whether the segments similarity score satisfies a segments similarity threshold. The system determines microservices similarity scores based on comparing a size of similar code segments in the first code segments and the second code segments against sizes of the first microservice and the second microservice, if the segments similarity score satisfies the segments similarity threshold. The system determines whether any microservices similarity score satisfies a microservices similarity threshold. The system outputs a recommendation to merge the first microservice with the second microservice, if any microservices similarity score satisfies the microservices similarity threshold.
