I have small cluster and the only reason I’d want service mesh is to inspect req/resp between services for better debug. And I’m not even sure they can do that.

Retries for free are good I guess, but not something essential. MTLS is something I don’t want at all.
- nullify88 3y agoCouldn't you accomplish that with tracing? You may not even need any changes in your application as eBPF maybe able to automatically instrument the application. Alternatively, If you use Cilium as a CNI, this functionality can come out the box. https://docs.cilium.io/en/latest/observability/visibility/ https://docs.cilium.io/en/latest/observability/visibility/
- jakupovic 3y agoExactly if you don't need the functionality provided don't use a mesh, but consequently if you then use it. Honestly not very complicated, but mTLS is very complicated done correctly.
