Service Mesh: Past, Present and Future
Service Mesh has emerged as the latest cloud-native technology in the microservices stack -- specifically designed to solve the service-to-service communication challenges of distributed applications by abstracting the networking logic from the application code and managing it separately.
This is great within a single cluster but building and scaling resilient and highly available applications mean deploying beyond the boundaries of a single cluster to multiple clusters, and even multiple clouds. This presents new challenges in deployment patterns, configuration, routing, security, extensibility, and more.
In this talk, Idit discusses the unique opportunities presented in service mesh for multi-cluster and multi-mesh operations.
