Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes mapping micro-service network interfaces in a service network to service engine network interfaces for connecting micro-services to external endpoints, transmitting a request for communication with one of the external endpoints from one of the micro-services to a service broker operable to select one of the micro-service network interfaces for the communication with the external endpoint, and receiving a response from the service broker with the selected micro-service network interface. The service broker dynamically selects a service path for the communication based on a policy and independent from default network routes.
