Morphology

serviceability = serviceable (transparent) = service + able + ity

The noun 'serviceability' is transparently derived from the adjective 'serviceable' by adding the suffix '-ity', indicating a state or quality.

Etymology

Serviceability comes from the common word service, which is linked to serve and means 'to help or work for', plus the parts -able ('can be') and -ity ('state of'). So, serviceability is the 'state of being able to serve', which explains why it means the quality of giving good or effective service or performance.
