Service Mesh Architecture: Monoliths, Microservices, and Beyond

Event Ended
April 5, 2018

Service mesh is an emerging architecture design that allows organizations to control and measure service to service communications, also known as "east-west" traffic. This pattern is becoming ever more crucial for enterprises that have broken the monolith apart and moved towards microservices.

In this presentation, Marco Palladino and Aaron Miller walk you through the history and evolution leading to the emergence of service mesh.

This presentation will give you:

  • An overview of the microservices evolution towards the service mesh pattern.
  • A clear understanding of the benefits and caveats of this approach.
  • Insights into the types of organizations that are most likely to benefit from implementing service mesh.
