In multi-cloud and hybrid cloud architectures, enterprises face challenges like inter-cloud communication, traffic management, application orchestration, data security, and compliance. Service mesh technology offers a unified approach for managing service interactions, enhancing security, and ensuring data compliance.

Istio, a leading service mesh project, is particularly effective in multi-cloud and hybrid cloud environments. It provides seamless network connectivity across various architectures, ensuring reliable and secure communication. Additionally, integrating Istio with Karmada enables efficient application scheduling across these complex environments. Karmada allows for smooth orchestration of workloads across different cloud platforms, enhancing the flexibility and scalability of cloud-native applications.

I aim to share practical insights and experiences, especially from China, to inspire and provide strategic perspectives in navigating these technological landscapes.
