Hi, I’m wondering if there is an option to instruct (or maybe it’s done by default?) the VirtualService to prefer local destination pods - pods which are running on the same node as the pod issuing the request?
If such a feature doesn’t exist - I would like to raise a discussion if you think it would be useful for you?
Thank you for the link. I’ve read it before posting a question here, and could not find the answer to the question asked.
My assumption is that VirtualService doesn’t distinguish local pods from remote pods, and I’m wondering if it is a good idea at all. I think that adding this feature can improve response times, but I have no understanding of the implications it could bring.
Hello. Do you maybe mean: https://istio.io/docs/ops/configuration/traffic-management/locality-load-balancing/ ?
