Envoy

English

Overview

A high-performance proxy designed for microservices.

Details

A high-performance proxy designed as the data plane for a service mesh, widely adopted in Kubernetes environments. It has a mechanism called the xDS API for fetching and updating configuration dynamically, so routing rules or TLS certificates can be applied without restarting the proxy -- a good fit for microservice environments where services come and go frequently.
