Explore the exciting development of service mesh features in gRPC and learn how to implement them without the complexity of managing sidecar proxies. This keynote presentation from Google's Engineering Manager, Srini Polavarapu, delves into the architecture of a proxy-less service mesh and demonstrates the transition from a proxy-based system. Discover how gRPC can address common microservices challenges, including service discovery, load balancing, application security, and observability. Gain insights into the xts APIs, their implementation in gRPC, and the advantages and potential downsides of this approach. Conclude with a practical demonstration showcasing the simplified service mesh capabilities in action.
