Container Networking Untangling Services Meshes and SDNs - Gregory Elkinbard, GSE Software

Horizontally scalable applications need reliable and scalable networking, traffic routing to the correct instance and security policy enforcement. Traditionally SDNs have delivered these functions. However recently Service Meshes began to encroach on the tranditional SDN space. This presentation will compare 3 services meshes Istio, Linkerd and Conduit vs a more traditional SDN such as OpenContrail in the Kubernetes cluster environment. We will go over the features of each one of these products and compare their Kubernetes integrations against each other.
