Does the Hybrid Cloud mesh work with non - kubernetes workloads

  • 1.  Does the Hybrid Cloud mesh work with non - kubernetes workloads

    Hi

      We have  legacy apps & Databases running on VMs  & Microservices in K8s,

    Does Hybrid cloud mesh help network all these components seamlessly across multi cloud  OR  Is it only tailored for Kubernetes Clusters?

    Hi Prashanth,

    So as of today, Kubernetes clusters are automatically discovered by Hybrid Cloud Mesh that results in seamless connectivity across multiple clouds. That said, legacy apps on VMs can also be supported by manually registering them under the VPC where the VMs are deployed. So precisely, Mesh will be able to network both microservices and apps running on a VM. There will be further refinement on VM based services in future.
