- bboreham 12y agoRudder has a central configuration (via etcd); Weave communicates network changes across all nodes by itself - as long as each new node knows how to contact at least one other node, it will learn of all other nodes and connect to as many as it can. Also Rudder is Layer 3 and Weave is Layer 2 and Weave can encrypt traffic.
- weavenetwork 12y agoThe most significant conceptual difference is that in rudder sub-nets are tied to hosts. So containers on different hosts will always be on different sub-nets. By contrast, in weave containers belonging to the same application reside in the same sub-net, regardless of what host they are running on. In other words, weave makes the network topology fit the application topology, not the other way round.
