Service Mesh

A service mesh is a dedicated infrastructure layer for handling service-to-service communication. It provides features like load balancing, encryption, and observability without application changes.

Key Concepts

  • Sidecar proxy (Envoy)
  • mTLS encryption
  • Traffic management
  • Observability metrics
  • Policy enforcement

Common Use Cases

  • Microservices security
  • Zero-trust networking
  • Traffic shifting
  • Observability without code changes
  • Circuit breaking

Best Practices

  • Start with observability
  • Enable mTLS gradually
  • Use traffic splitting for canary
  • Monitor sidecar overhead
  • Consider managed services

Resources

  • Istio, Linkerd, Consul Connect
  • Related Skills: kubernetes, microservices, observability
