Calico has recently introduced a powerful new policy recommendation engine that enables DevOps, SREs, and Kubernetes operators to automatically generate Calico policies to implement namespace isolation and improve the security posture of their clusters.
The microservices architecture provides developers and DevOps engineers significant agility that helps them move at the pace of the business. Breaking monolithic applications into smaller components accelerates development, streamlines scaling, and improves fault isolation. However, it also introduces certain security complexities since microservices frequently engage in inter-service communications, primarily through HTTP-based APIs, thus broadening the application’s attack surface.
