SMI specifications

The service mesh itself is very new (since 2016), so it does not have much history. A push for an SMI specification has been done to guide different service mesh providers to adhere to a well-defined API that will allow end users to easily change provider without being locked down to one implementation. The SMI specification fulfills the following key features:

  • Provides a standard interface for meshes on Kubernetes
  • Provides a basic feature set for common mesh use cases
  • Provides flexibility to support new mesh capabilities
  • Applies policies such as identity and transport encryption across services
  • Captures key metrics such as error rate and latency between services
  • Shifts and weighs traffic between different services
