medium📝 Command Output Q5 of 15

Kubernetes - Service Mesh

AAll services must update their code to use the new library version

BThe service mesh automatically updates communication without code changes

CNo update is needed because communication is handled externally

DKubernetes automatically patches the library in running pods

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand library-based approach update impact
Since communication logic is inside app code, updating the library requires code changes and redeployment.
Step 2: Contrast with service mesh behavior
Service mesh updates happen externally, no app code changes needed.
Final Answer:
All services must update their code to use the new library version -> Option A
Quick Check:
Library-based updates require code changes [OK]

Quick Trick: Library updates need app code changes and redeployments [OK]

Common Mistakes:

Assuming automatic updates without code changes
Thinking Kubernetes patches libraries inside pods
Confusing service mesh with library-based updates
