N-Tier architectures and micro-services applications must be tuned for performance. By using the Kubernetes Metrics Server or metrics from tools such as Prometheus, a cluster may respond to resource demands when pre-programmed thresholds are surpassed. Aggregating metrics from diverse nodes is feasible with tooling such as Prometheus.

According to Martin, the term SDN originally referred to a change in the network architecture to include a) decoupling the distribution model of the control plane from the data plane; and b) generalized rather than fixed function forwarding hardware. Instead, SDN is a tool that can be leveraged in order to create network virtualization.

Recep talks about how the predominant architecture for network virtualization involves the use of overlay networks created and managed at the edge by virtual switches in the hypervisors. Some of these services naturally should run on the top-of-rack (ToR) switch, like load balancing or security services. So how does this work?

Eskilden freely acknowledges that moving to a microservices-based architecture increases complexity and is not “free”. In order to help address the complexity brought on by microservices-based architectures, Eskilden wants to talk about resiliency, service discovery, and routing. Fast convergence can be important (in some cases).
