Unlocking the Power of Kuma Service Mesh: Enhancing Reliability and D...

" summary

Zomato adopts Kuma (Envoy-based) on AWS ECS to manage ~500 microservices and ~10,000 dataplanes, replacing brittle static Envoy configs. Control plane serves ~700–1,000 dataplanes each, Kuma enforces mTLS with built‑in CA and GitOps policy rollout, collects Envoy metrics into Victoria/Prometheus + Grafana, and enables canary traffic split (e.g., 5%). Engineering builds ephemeral preview environments and a local preview via SSH reverse tunnel that routes requests by a preview-id header to a developer’s process; system reduces debugging friction and scales reliably.
