Service-level policies for access control
- E
Container image scanning for vulnerabilities
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, D
Explanation
Tanzu Service Mesh provides critical features such as mTLS encryption for secure communication, observability through distributed tracing and metrics, and service-level policies for granular access control. These features help organizations manage and secure microservice communication in Kubernetes environments. Features like automated scaling and container image scanning are outside the scope of Tanzu Service Mesh and are handled by other tools or Kubernetes itself.
- A. Correct.
Tanzu Service Mesh supports mTLS (mutual Transport Layer Security) to ensure secure communication between services by encrypting data in transit.
- B. Correct.
Tanzu Service Mesh provides distributed tracing and metrics collection, enabling observability into the interactions and performance of microservices.
- C. Incorrect.
Automated scaling of Kubernetes nodes is a feature of Kubernetes itself, not specific to Tanzu Service Mesh.
- D. Correct.
Tanzu Service Mesh allows defining service-level policies, such as access control rules, to manage communication between services.
- E. Incorrect.
Container image scanning for vulnerabilities is not a feature of Tanzu Service Mesh but is typically provided by container security tools.
