NGINX Service Mesh

NGINX Service Mesh is a fully integrated lightweight service mesh that leverages a data plane powered by NGINX Plus to manage container traffic in Kubernetes environments.

NGINX Service Mesh is supported in Rancher 2.5+ when deploying from the Apps and Marketplace. NGINX Service Mesh is not currently supported on k3s.

Observability

NGINX Service Mesh can integrate with a number of tracing services using OpenTelemetry or OpenTracing.

Using OpenTelemetry

Telemetry can only be enabled by editing the configuration YAML directly in the Rancher UI. When installing NGINX Service Mesh, select the Edit YAML option. To enable telemetry, fill out the telemetry object. The telemetry object expects a samplerRatio, and the host and port of your OTLP gRPC collector.

For example:

telemetry:
  samplerRatio: 0.01
  exporters:
    otlp:
      host: "my-otlp-collector-host"
      port: 4317

Automatic Sidecar Injection

To enable automatic sidecar injection for all Pods in a namespace, label the namespace with injector.nsm.nginx.com/auto-inject=enabled.
