Are ALB/NLB employed to handle traffic between pods in the same cluster? Or have I misunderstood the whole discussion?
My take on the 'eBPF will help solve service mesh' proposal is that it deals with not only ingress/egress traffic (where ALB/NLB are typically employed) but all traffic, including traffic between pods in a cluster. This is where my interests lay.
