Using a Service Mesh With gRPC

Explore how gRPC interacts with service mesh architectures in this 22-minute conference talk by Eric Anderson, a gRPC maintainer, presented at a CNCF event. Learn about different service mesh architectures and understand why they matter for your specific use cases. Discover how to identify the problems you're trying to solve to better evaluate the benefits and potential pain points of implementing a service mesh with gRPC. Focus primarily on Kubernetes environments while also covering service mesh implementations beyond Kubernetes. Gain insights into making informed decisions about whether a service mesh will address your particular challenges and how gRPC fits into the service mesh ecosystem.
