Original publication title: Efficient service mesh traffic management for cloud-native applications.
Plain-English summary
This research focuses on improving how cloud-native applications, which are built using microservices, manage the flow of information between different services. As these applications become more complex, it can be challenging to handle traffic and faults effectively. The study introduces a method that organizes services into groups to better manage resources and improve communication. By using this approach, they found that response times could be reduced by up to 15% during periods of high network delays. Overall, the proposed method shows promise in making these applications faster and more reliable.
Abstract
The cloud-native architecture and microservice technologies are revolutionizing the design, development, and management of cloud applications and services by offering greater elasticity, scalability, and flexibility. However, managing service-to-service traffic and handling faults turn out to be more difficult for modern, sophisticated cloud-native applications. The research community responded to the technical challenges by exploring efficient scheduling schemes that deploy constituent services to a node. Despite those efforts, current solutions are unable to handle real-time traffic dynamics, which could lead to resource waste and unnecessary communication delays. In this work, service partitions are used to improve resource distribution and traffic control in microservice-based applications. This strategy uses graph-based techniques to effectively cluster services, optimize resource usage, and boost communication efficiency, while continually monitoring application behaviors. We found that it can reduce response times by up to 15% during times of high network latency. The performance and dependability of microservices in cloud-native environments can be significantly improved using the proposed approach.
