services mesh survey


Here is another dev-ops overview of the different types of services mesh systems, their designs, strengths, weaknesses and approaches.  A few of the more-popular meshes are missing such as TwistLock.  And my concerns about simplicity and performance are not well-addressed.  But it's a good starting point to learn the basics.  As a beta user of istio, I still recommend it; for example you can have some pods ignore the mesh but log to istio's prometheus to align all events and timestamps.
