A service mesh is a powerful tool that can provide a wide range of capabilities including service discovery, zero trust security, load balancing, multi-cloud connectivity, automation, and north-south traffic control. It allows organizations to consolidate multiple existing tools into one solution, reducing management toil and costs. A cloud-agnostic service mesh provides simplification for multi-cloud architectures, enabling global service discovery, secure communication, and load balancing across different environments. By leveraging a service mesh, organizations can improve their security posture, reduce tool sprawl, and increase efficiency in managing network infrastructure.
