J-Fall 2019: Jeroen Reijn – What’s a service mesh and why do i need one?

You’ve been creating this cloud-native microservice based architecture. Continuous delivery pipelines, cloud-based deployments, and Kubernetes managed Docker containers. You are ready to scale beyond your wildest dreams. Now, while taking a step back, you notice that your services contain more than just the business logic you intended to write. Proper communication is key in a distributed system, but do you really need these extra libraries that increase the size of your microservice? Should the responsibility for reliable communication live within your application or can this be abstracted to a higher level? In this session, we will look at the concept of a Services Mesh and how it helps you put the responsibilities at the right layer. After this presentation you might have an answer to the question if you really need a service mesh.
