A commonplace issue with portable technology is battery efficiency. While many industries are trying their best to improve battery life without sacrificing a products quality and efficiency, we believe that further can be done to improve battery consumption on ones mobile devicefrom tablets to smartphones to laptops to everything else. Many applications on these devices are based on a microservice architecture. In this article, we introduce a new algorithm KaliGreen that can maneuver the microservices within a network of devices in order to maximize the run-time of a microservice-based application; moreover, KaliGreen allows a 54% increase in the average run-time of an application by shifting microservices from 6 devices (as example) with low battery or inefficient processing ratios to devices in better conditions. To achieve this, KaliGreen utilizes KaliMucho middleware, which is able manipulate microservices in run-time. This algorithm provides a plausible solution to maximizing energy consumption within a network of devices.
