Towards a Unified, Standard API for Consolidating Service Meshes
Service mesh architectures enable a control and observability loop. At the moment, service mesh implementations vary in regard to API and technology, and this shows no signs of slowing down. Building on top of volatile APIs can be hazardous. Here we suggest to use a simplified, workflow-friendly API to shield organization platform code from specific service-mesh implementation details.

How to Mitigate the Pain of Getting and Giving Feedback
Companies that encourage open and honest feedback do better than companies that do not. Nonetheless, giving feedback is difficult because social and physical pain share some of the same neural circuitry. Hence, feedback can feel physically painful, as Sarah Hagan discusses in her 2018 QCon San Francisco talk . Hagan uses scientific research to demonstrate how to give feedback properly.

Application Integration for Microservices Architectures: A Service Mesh Is Not an ESB
A service mesh is only meant to be used as infrastructure for communication between services, and developers should not be building any business logic inside the service mesh. Other frameworks and libraries can be used to implement cloud native enterprise application integration patterns.

The Potential for Using a Service Mesh for Event-Driven Messaging
In this article, we discuss one of the most challenging and unexplored areas in service mesh architecture; supporting event-driven messaging. There are two main architectural patterns that we discuss here: the protocol proxy sidecar, and the HTTP bridge sidecar. Regardless of the pattern that is used, the sidecar can facilitate features such as observability, throttling, tracing etc.
