Enhancing Application Resilience

A suite of features to enhance your services' stability, reliability, and performance. By leveraging service discovery, load balancing, and circuit-breaking mechanisms, ambient mesh ensures your applications remain responsive, even in the face of network instabilities, traffic spikes or partial outages.

Key Resiliency Features

Dynamic service discovery

Automatically detect and register new services. Ambient mesh maintains an up-to-date service registry across the entire mesh.

Load balancing

Distribute traffic efficiently across service instances using multiple load-balancing algorithms. Automatically adjust traffic distribution based on application health and performance.

Circuit breaking and outlier detection

Prevent cascading failures by automatically detecting and isolating unhealthy service instances, to simply handle and reliably recover from outages.

Health checks

Continuously monitor and optimize based on the health of services and workloads.

Retry and timeout policies

Intelligent retry mechanisms to handle transient failure. Configure timeout policies to prevent long-running requests from degrading overall performance.

Fault and delay injection

Simulate various failure scenarios to test your system’s resiliency. Inject faults or delays into services to validate your application’s behavior under adverse test conditions.
