service meshes only reliably support http traffic right now
I try to avoid CRDs as they create vendor lock in
Istio deprecated Helm deployments in favor of their istioctl command line utility
Why? The service mesh proxy container never exits. If it never exits, then the init containers and cronjobs never really “finish”. In the former, your application container will never spin up and in the latter, your cronjob will timeout and be marked as a failure.> ???
Anyways, there are hacks to get around this, but it means that successfully implementing a service mesh is no longer transparent to the developer as they will need to make some code or deployment modifications.
