How to get end-to-end traces when one user request bounces across multiple agents, tools, and retries. The goal is simple: open your tracing UI and see one story, not scattered logs.
A concrete pattern for agent mesh governance: every agent/tool call goes through a Policy Enforcement Point (PEP) that asks a Policy Decision Point (PDP) if the action is allowed. This is mandatory plumbing for multi-tenant agent systems.
Teams are moving from one big agent to many small agents. They need shared tool access and a clean way to talk to each other. Here's how MCP and A2A fit together without creating a mess.
Once you have many agents delegating work, debugging becomes the main cost. You need to answer basic questions fast: Which agent made the call? Which tools did it touch? What did it see? What did it cost? This is now a common pain point in 'agent mesh' style systems.
AI-generated code works, but it's harder to read and change. Here's a review checklist that catches the mess before it ships.
Reliability code is everywhere now: retries, timeouts, circuit breakers, idempotency keys. The trend is good, but the code often becomes unreadable. Here's how to keep it clean and obvious.
How Gateway API's role-oriented design lets platform teams and app teams share the same gateway infrastructure safely, without stepping on each other.
Roll out Istio ambient mode without sidecars. Get mTLS and identity at L4, add waypoint proxies only for workloads that need L7 features. A practical rollout plan that doesn't melt your cluster.
How to design idempotent APIs so users never get double-charged, double-booked, or double-notified, even when clients retry like crazy.
How to run many teams and apps on shared Kubernetes clusters without chaos, noisy neighbors, or security holes.
