The present disclosure relates to methods and systems for configuring service mesh networking resources for dynamically discovered external entities. The methods and systems create custom resource objects for services provided by the external entities and dynamically create service mesh network resources for the custom resource objects. The methods and systems enable communications with the external entities using the service mesh network resources.

Configuring service mesh networking resources for dynamically discovered peers or network functions

Techniques are disclosed for capturing network traffic in a distributed computing environment comprising a plurality of computing devices executing a plurality of Kubernetes pods. A customer resource definition defines one or more capture filters. Based on the capture filters, a configuration map object specifying data packets to be captured is generated. Capture sidecars are injected at the Kubernetes pods. At each Kubernetes pod the configuration map object is read and a capture of the specified data packets is initiated.
