Abstract
A computer implemented method of routing service requests to service instances in a service mesh. The method comprises monitoring one or more performance characteristics of each of a plurality of network links to service instances. The method further comprises making a prediction of the network latency of transmitting a service request via each of at least two of the plurality of network links and selecting one of the plurality of service instances and routing the service request thereto based on the predictions of the network latencies.
