Explore the evolution from service mess to service mesh in this conference talk from Conf42 Kube Native 2023. Dive into the core concepts of service mesh, including observation, control, and security. Understand the transition from monolithic architectures to microservices and the shift from north-south to east-west traffic patterns. Learn about the challenges with API gateways and how service mesh addresses these issues. Discover how service mesh works, its components, and its capabilities beyond simple proxying. Examine popular service mesh solutions like Linkerd and Istio through practical demos. Evaluate the implementation costs and benefits of service mesh, and determine when to adopt this technology in your infrastructure. Gain insights into preventing unexpected traffic patterns, leveraging dashboards, and optimizing your microservices architecture with service mesh.
