Isovalent library

Service mesh is a concept describing the requirements of modern cloud native applications with regards to communication, visibility, and security. Current implementations of this concept involve running sidecar proxies in each workload or pod. This is a pretty inefficient way of solving these requirements. In this white paper we will look at an alternative to the sidecar model that provides a transparent service mesh with high efficiency at low complexity, with the help of eBPF.

Enterprises adopting cloud native technologies quickly realize that legacy approaches are useless in efficiently rolling our business applications. Cilium enables Kubernetes architects to solve challenges as addressing security & compliance requirements, providing advanced connectivity and ensuring identity-aware observability for platform and application teams.
