What is DAPR service?

Dapr is a portable, event-driven runtime that makes it easy for any developer to build resilient, stateless and stateful applications that run on the cloud and edge and embraces the diversity of languages and developer frameworks.

The service mesh in Kubernetes is typically implemented as a set of network proxies . Deployed alongside a “sidecar” of application code, these proxies serve as an introduction point for service mesh features and manage communication between the microservices.

Popular service meshes include: Linkerd, Istio, Consul, Kuma, and Maesh . Supporting technologies within this space include: Layer 7-aware proxies, such as Envoy, HAProxy, NGINX, and MOSN; and service mesh orchestration, visualization, and understandability tooling, such as SuperGloo, Kiali, and Dive.
