Comparative analysis with related research.

Criteria	Mustafa and Marx Gómez [19]	Mazlami et al. [14]	Chen et al. [15]	Proposed microservice construction method
Construction method	Define similar time zones as one session and suggest ways to separate sessions where multiple accesses appear	Clustering of classes with similar purpose of class change	Rule is defined to connect one process with one data and suggests how to configure them as microservices	Suggesting a method for constructing a graph expressing the class relation in the monolithic design data and then constructing it as an entity unit.
Independence	Independently separated by session unit	Classes with similar purpose of change are linked independently	It can be associated with other data and cannot be an independent configuration	Independent connections between classes affecting entity unit
Interface (API)	Separated services include interfaces that support user access.	Not included	Not included	Constructed microservices perform API communication between user input/output and microservice
Business capability	It is not known whether a separate service explicitly performs one business logic because it isolates the frequently occurring services independently	Class groups with similar purpose for change do not verify that they perform one business logic	Define through rule that a group of operation and data should be subdivided into one business logic	The constructed microservice defines the business logic to be executed in one entity unit.
Data store	Not included	Not included	Data associated with operation are presented as a microservice construction element	Constructed microservices include entity elements for processing data
