Deploying a service mesh to production can provide immediate operational and cost economy benefits for a large number of services using long-lived RPC protocols in Kubernetes.
- Transitioning to Kubernetes logical services improved service discovery and connectivity between services.
- Using gRPC for backbone protocols resulted in long-lived connections and inefficient load balancing.
- Deploying a service mesh to production provided immediate operational and cost economy benefits, including reduced costs for moving data between zones and mutual TLS support for all communications within the pod.
- Future plans include deploying Chaos Mesh more fully and switching to isolated individual clusters per geographic area.

The presentation discusses how to use Kubernetes and WebRTC to power video streaming for a watch party. The speaker shares her experience in building a movie night application and scaling it using Kubernetes.
- Movie night is a distributed approach to concurrently streaming video across multiple peers.
- WebRTC enables peer-to-peer connections across different browsers, cutting out the server in the middle and reducing latency.
- Kubernetes is used to scale the application by deploying multiple pods and using horizontal load balancing with an auto scaler.
- The speaker suggests exploring different video stream protocols and bundled P2P/video streaming to improve video quality.
- An anecdote is shared about the speaker's experience in using WebRTC and Kubernetes to build a movie night application.
