Distributed applications and Kubernetes: Frameworks or service meshes or both

on YouTube ↗37m

" summary

Compares Java frameworks (Spring Boot/Spring Cloud with Eureka and Spring Cloud Gateway, Micronaut, Quarkus using Resilience4J/SmallRye) that embed service discovery and circuit breakers versus Kubernetes features (Services, ConfigMaps, scaling) and extensions: per-pod sidecar proxy service meshes that enable percentage-based canary routing and observability at the cost of added hops and measurable latency, and node-level eBPF on nodes (Cilium) that attaches to worker nodes to capture/control traffic with lower overhead while still requiring a control plane.
