Abstract
In Chapter 7, “Integrating Microservices,” we discussed that microservices have to talk to each other and inter-service communication is one of the key challenges in realizing the microservices architecture. In the conventional Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), the centralized Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) facilitated most of the inter-service communication requirements and with the shift to the smart endpoints and dumb pipes, now the service developers have to take care of all the complexities of inter-service communication. Service Mesh has immerged as a pattern to overcome most of these challenges. It does this by providing a generic distributed layer that encapsulates the commodity features of inter-service communication.
