Lyft’s New Application Service Mesh
How best should an organization transition its monolith architecture into a set of microservices? Apparently, it might not have to. Matt Klein, principal software engineer at car-sharing service Lyft, told The New Stack at PagerDuty Summit 2017 that a startup can develop its own monolith more easily than it can develop complex microservices. But with an underlying service mesh architecture , such as Lyft’s Envoy, that monolith can still be providing service-oriented functions to customers in the same way, and probably without service degradation.
