Summary
Telepresence is a CNCF sandbox project that enables developers to connect their local development machine to a remote cluster via a two-way proxying mechanism, allowing them to develop services locally while testing integrations with dependent services or data stores running in the remote cluster. This technology accelerates the development workflow and mitigates integration issues by mirroring the live production environment. Telepresence can be used for integration testing, enabling developers to make changes and see them reflected when interacting with their Kubernetes environment, query services only exposed in their cluster's network, and set breakpoints in their IDE to investigate bugs.
