A New Frontier: Sidecarless Service Mesh on Windows With Istio's Ambient Mesh - Keith Mattix & Mitch Connors, Microsoft
Tuesday April 1, 2025 13:35 - 14:00 BST
Level 3 | ICC Capital Suite 7-9
Over the past 8 years, service meshes have provided the Kubernetes and CNCF ecosystems with the networking capabilities necessary for a robust microservice architecture. However, Windows container users have often been unable to take advantage of these features because of the deep Linux dependencies. Until now.

In this talk, you'll learn about past efforts to bring service mesh to Windows, and how Istio's ambient mesh opened the door for a maintainable path forward for a sidecarless deployment topology. We'll learn how Rust, Envoy, and maybe even eBPF can bridge the gap between Linux and Windows for service mesh.
