Service Mesh Specifications and Why They Matter in your DeploymentNovember 18, 2020
As the ubiquity of service meshes unfolds so does the need for vendor and technology-agnostic interfaces to interact with them. The following three open specifications solving the challenge of interoperability, workload and performance management between service meshes: Service Mesh Performance (SMP) and Service Mesh Interface (SMI), Multi-Vendor Service Mesh Interoperation (Hamlet). Attend to learn what makes each of these specifications unique and why they are very much needed.CNCF SIG Network: Intro and Deep-Dive
November 20, 2020
It’s the network! is the cry of every system administrator, every developer. With the increased prevalence of microservice-based distributed systems, it’s true - networking as a discipline has never been more critical in the efficient operation of cloud native deployments. Networking primitives, including load balancing, observability, authentication, authorization, policy, rate limiting, QoS, mesh networks, legacy infrastructure bridging, and so on are now receiving substantial development and investment throughout the industry and are the subject of focus of the CNCF SIG Network.See what the CNCF's Service Mesh Working Group has been up to. Join this talk for an intro to the SIG, its charter and a deeper discussion of current cloud native networking topics being advanced in this SIG. Current CNCF projects in-scope: Open Service Mesh, Kuma, Chaos Mesh, Ambassador, CNI, CoreDNS, Envoy, gRPC, Linkerd, NATS, Network Service Mesh.
