Real-time debugging instances in a deployed container platform

Abstract:

A method may include receiving a request for a service at a container environment. The container environment may include a service mesh and a plurality of services encapsulated in a plurality of containers. The service may be encapsulated in first one or more containers. The method may also include determining that the request should be routed to a debug instance of the service; and instantiating the debug instance of the service. The debug instance may be encapsulated in second one or more containers and may include code implementing the service and one or more debugging utilities. The method may additionally include routing, by the service mesh, the request to the debug instance.
