A bit of a shameless plug here, but I'm a Ph.D. student at Carnegie Mellon University (Ph.D. in Software Engineering) and my thesis is on the resilience of microservice applications at scale. We've published a little bit on this topic, with some new work under submission currently, but I've put together a website that talks about a.) why doing this work as a student is very difficult due to the lack of open-source applications in this style and b.) proposed a new technique for addressing these problems.

It's called Filibuster:

Example of testing a small Java application with Filibuster:

I think there's a fair bit of microservices in the CNCF space. Cortex is implemented as micro services (and Kubernetes largely is, too)
