Abstract
The technology described herein is directed towards combining multiple sidecar (e.g., Envoy-based) proxies into a single sidecar or reduced number of sidecars for use in association with a service. Described is identifying sidecars for merging, grouping by version compatibility, and determining their functions and configuration data. Any conflicts in the configuration data are resolved. A merged sidecar is built by combining functional code and configuration data. The merged sidecar is deployed along with its relevant service, e.g., deployed as a container in a Kubernetes environment. The merging facilitates reduction of resource utilization by having only a merged sidecar, instead of multiple sidecars, support a service.
