things like layer 7 control, you can say - "don't allow HTTP GET on /supersecret". Also, Isito is gRPC aware

- andrewstuart2 8y agoThis brings about a major problem with centralized route management, though, in that you then must build all of your access controls around URLs rather than deeper business logic. Istio offers much more, but as far as anything but coarse-grained "this service will never need to talk to this other service" access control, I'd still much rather write the logic in the code where it has access to a lot more domain knowledge.
- gauravphoenix 8y agoif you want just simple layer 4 ACLs among the services, I recommend just using NetworkPolicies[1] of k8s. Personally, I think that Istio is overly complex but then so is k8s :) [1] https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/network-policies/ https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/netw...
