Linkerd & gRPC in k8s — marriage made in heaven | by Deepthi Nalla | Jan, 2021 | Medium

admin 1 week ago in

Are you using gRPC for inter service communication between a bunch of micro-services on kubernetes? If the answer is yes, then I am pretty sure you must have done a few extra things that you would not have done if the same services were REST APIs to ensure that load-balancing is taken care of. William Morgan(CEO of Buoyant) wrote a very good blog post —…

Definitive guide to setup KrakenD on GKE | Medium

admin 2 weeks ago in

One of the first things I usually do after spinning up a GKE cluster is to secure HTTP traffic to backends by setting up an API Gateway called KrakenD. In addition to security, we can use KrakenD to route traffic to different namespaces since GKE’s Ingress doesn’t allow for routing across namespaces at this stage. We are also going to see one of the ways…

gRPC load balancing — Service Meshes | by Gökçe Sürenkök | hepsiburadatech | Dec, 2020 | Medium

In this article, I will be explaining why it is a must to use L7 proxies(service meshes) when you have microservices communicating with each other using gRPC calls. As the Search and Navigation Team of Hepsiburada(aka Mordor), we have been dividing our main service Mordor API into microservices. And team preferred to use gRPC between services for better performance since there is no more JSON…

Manually Inject LinkerD into K8s Deployment Specification Files | by ⚗ Kevin Summersill 🔋 | Nov, 2020 | Medium

admin 2 months ago in

In this article, we will be injecting deployment specifications with LinkerD annotations. This is because we are utilizing ArgoCD for our GitOps approach and the LinkerD Cli does not inject and deploying into our Git repository. The sync process in ArgoCD shows “out of sync” since the injection does not go through the repo. So let’s inject via the YAML file within our repo. Create…

Introduction to Linkerd for beginners | by Marcel Dempers | Oct, 2020 | Medium

I had a blast learning about Linkerd lately. It’s a service mesh designed to help with traditional issues regarding service to service communication Many times we would have to write a lot of code and operational overhead to achieve: A service mesh can help here by injecting a discrete proxy next to every application which hijacks requests coming in and out of that service. I…

To mesh or not to mesh.| by Juan Matías de la Cámara Beovide | Medium | Medium

I was told that a Service Mesh such as Linkerd, Consul or Istio, adds a lot of overload in my cluster. Keeping this in mind, a Service Mesh is not suitable to a small deployment. Instead, you should consider a Service Mesh when you client is big enough to deserve it. But, how big a client must be to deserve a Service Mesh? And more…

A walk-through of examples illustrating key Linkerd concepts. note: The examples in this article were run on the Linkerd 2.7.0 that is included with a recent version of MicroK8s (has to be enabled). If you are looking to follow along, I assume that you have already installed Linkerd 2.7.0 or greater in a Kubernetes Cluster. First, we need to know what Linkerd is: Linkerd is…
