Linkerd v2: How Lessons from Production Adoption Resulted in a Rewrite of the Service Mesh
Linkerd 2.0 introduced a substantial rewrite of the widely adopted service mesh, using a split between Go and Rust. In this article, we discuss the lessons learned in the "cauldron of production adoption", and how those lessons became the basis of Linkerd 2.x’s philosophy, design, and implementation.

Monitoring and Managing Workflows across Collaborating Microservices
This article argues that you need to balance orchestration and choreography in a microservices architecture in order to be able to understand, manage and change the system.

Tap Compare Testing with Diferencia and Java Microservices
“Tap compare” is a testing technique that allows you to test the behavior and performance of the new service by comparing its results against the old service. This article provides an example of using a new open source tool, Diferencia, and mirroring production traffic across both old and new services to compare the difference in result.

Ambassador: Building a Control Plane for an Envoy-Powered API Gateway on Kubernetes
This article provides an insight into the creation of the Ambassador open source API gateway for Kubernetes, and discusses the technical challenges and lessons learned from building a developer-focused control plane for managing ingress or "edge" traffic within microservice-based applications.

Service Catalog and Kubernetes
Cloud-native applications do not just live inside Kubernetes—they also benefit from using the available cloud managed services. Similar to Kubernetes' declarative object configuration model, the Open Service Broker API with the Service Catalog provides a declarative way to describe cross-platform/cross-cloud managed service dependencies.

Rewriting an API Gateway Service from Clojure to Golang: AppsFlyer Experience Report
AppsFlyer processes nearly 70+ billion HTTP requests a day, and is built using a microservices architecture style. The entry point to the system that wraps all of the frontend services is a mission-critical (non-micro) service called the API Gateway. This article is an experience reporting of migrating from a Clojure-based gateway to a newly designed Go-based implementation.

Developing Microservices with Behavior Driven Development and Interface Oriented Design
These dependencies require well-defined and well-tested services. Behavior Driven Development (BDD) and Interface Oriented Design (IOD) help achieve this. BDD concentrates on the functionality of the services, which are specified with tests. IOD identifies contractual obligations (e.g. failure reporting) of the services.

Using Golang to Build Microservices at The Economist: A Retrospective
Microservices written in Go was a key component of a new system that would enable The Economist to deliver scalable, high performing services and quickly iterate new products. Go's baked in concurrency and API support along with its design as a static, compiled language enabled a distributed eventing system. Overall, The Economist team's experience with Go has been a positive experience.
