network_stuff:service_mesh
Intimately related to k8s and microservices
- Is an infra layer to connect services (via application layer (restapi,URLs..). All in the application layer, we don't worry about l1,l2,l3. Network connectivity is abstracted and gave it for granted.
- A set of transparent proxies/sidecars (eg ngnix) intercept all Layer 7 traffic (basically https requests). The proxy is itself a container
- Use cases:
- Load balance traffic. More in the application level than anything.
- For some part of the world, expose a version of the application, for the other one expose, let's say, the beta version.
