The Truth About the Service Mesh Data Plane

Explore the critical aspects of service mesh data planes in this 49-minute webinar presented by Denis Jannot, Director of Field Engineering at Solo.io. Delve into key considerations for organizations implementing service mesh, including data plane selection, integration with existing API infrastructure, and the resource demands of sidecar proxies. Gain insights into the spectrum of data-plane components, from shared gateways to in-code libraries, and learn how to choose the optimal solution for specific problem contexts. Examine how modern service meshes like Istio, Linkerd, and Consul enable various optimizations, and discover open-source tools that extend their capabilities. Understand the concept that successful microservices deployments inherently involve a service mesh, whether explicitly optimized or not.
